…an extension to existing Path MTU Discovery methods described in [RFC1191] and [RFC1981]. In the absence of ICMP messages, the proper MTU is determined by starting with small packets and probing with successively larger packets. The bulk of the algorithm is implemented above IP, …

…blems encountered by other upper-layer protocols. Path MTU Discovery for IPv6 [ RFC1981 ] treats only IPv6-dependent issues, but not the TCP issues brought up in this document. Each problem is defined as follows: Name of Problem The name associated with the problem. In this memo,…
…ICMPv6 messages to a host is not assured. Note: This document is an update to [ RFC1981 ] that was published prior to [ RFC2119 ] being published. Consequently, although RFC 1981 used the "should/must" style language in upper and lower case, this document does not cite the RFC 21…

…end-to-end path. This new method is expected to update most uses of RFC1191 and RFC1981 , the current standards track protocols for this purpose. Various weakness in the current methods are documented in RFC2923 , and have proven to be a chronic impediment to the deployment of ne…
