Hi,
I am curious as to where you would be running into MTU issues on IPv6
where you would need to manually compensate ? Broken tunnel providers ?
ICMP is bad and so filtering ICMPv6 must be good? Right? Even
vendors selling firewalls do it to their own webserver.
MSS clamping is a bad workaround for broken PMTU, and the real answer
really is, get the paths fixed!
Ther alternative I occactionally do is a destination route with a
lower MTU but you cannot go endlessly down with IPv6 as there's the
minimum.
