My understanding is that both routers should be limiting their TCP segments to 1240. However, is the ASR9K limiting its own outgoing TCP segments to 1240 or to 9152? I have found this past thread over the same issue that did answer the question: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/cisco/nsp/186300 Thanks, Everton _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
