Inferring and debugging path MTU discovery failures
2005
Proceedings of the 5th ACM SIGCOMM conference on Internet measurement - IMC '05
If a host can send packets larger than an Internet path can forward, it relies on the timely delivery of Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) messages advising that the packet is too big to forward. An ICMP Packet Too Big message reports the largest packet size -or Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) -that can be forwarded to the next hop. The iterative process of determining the largest packet size supported by a path by learning the next-hop MTU of each MTU-constraining link on the path is
