  2. Maximum transmission unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_transmission_unit

    The IP MTU and Ethernet maximum frame size are configured separately. In Ethernet switch configuration, MTU may refer to Ethernet maximum frame size. In Ethernet-based routers, MTU normally refers to the IP MTU. If jumbo frames are allowed in a network, the IP MTU should also be adjusted upwards to take advantage of this.

  3. Path MTU Discovery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_MTU_Discovery

    The process is repeated until the MTU is small enough to traverse the entire path without fragmentation. As IPv6 routers do not fragment packets, there is no Don't Fragment option in the IPv6 header. For IPv6, Path MTU Discovery works by initially assuming the path MTU is the same as the MTU on the link layer interface where the traffic originates.

  4. Jumbo frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jumbo_frame

    802.5 Token Ring can support frames with a 4464-byte MTU, FDDI can transport 4352-byte, ATM 9180-byte and 802.11 can transport 7935-byte MTUs. The IEEE 802.3 Ethernet standard originally mandated support for 1500-byte MTU frames, 1518 byte total frame size (1522 byte with the optional IEEE 802.1Q VLAN/QoS tag). The IEEE 802.3as update ...

  5. IPv6 packet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_packet

    In contrast to IPv4, routers do not fragment IPv6 packets larger than the maximum transmission unit (MTU), it is the sole responsibility of the originating node. A minimum MTU of 1,280 octets is mandated by IPv6, but hosts are "strongly recommended" to use Path MTU Discovery to take advantage of MTUs greater than the minimum. [1]

  6. Maximum segment size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_segment_size

    The TCP should ask the IP for the Maximum Datagram Data Size (MDDS). This is the MTU minus the IP header length (MDDS = MTU − IPHdrLen). When opening a connection, TCP can send an MSS option with the value equal to: MDDS − TCPHdrLen. In other words, the MSS value to send is: MSS = MTU − TCPHdrLen − IPHdrLen

  8. Metrics (networking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metrics_(networking)

    maximum transmission unit (MTU) administrator configured value; In EIGRP, metrics is represented by an integer from 0 to 4,294,967,295 (The size of a 32-bit integer). In Microsoft Windows XP routing it ranges from 1 to 9999. A metric can be considered as: [1] additive - the total cost of a path is the sum of the costs of individual links along ...

  9. IP fragmentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_fragmentation

    An example of the fragmentation of a protocol data unit in a given layer into smaller fragments. IP fragmentation is an Internet Protocol (IP) process that breaks packets into smaller pieces (fragments), so that the resulting pieces can pass through a link with a smaller maximum transmission unit (MTU) than the original packet size.
