I think, according to RFC1191, that the probing should happen on any
given connection

After my slap-dash read of the current FreeBSD code, I was a little

RFC 1191 says to increase the PMTU at some itnerval (15 minutes default)
next time a packet is sent, this will be used... and if PMTU is really
increased,
no ICMP error will be recieved. that shows an increase in the PMTU. I'm
trying to
understand if this mechanism is there in freebsd. any on this
As I understand it, it is not possible to detect upward changes in the path
MTU as there is no mechanism for a router to generate an error when a packet
is small enough to be accommodated by the MTU of the link to the next hop. I
may be wrong though.
RFC1191 section 6.3.
