Yes, the PE reassembles the echo request from CE and replies with a packet the same size (1550 bytes) that does not need to be fragmented because the MTU says it can send 9100 bytes in one go. And then the CE drops the packet on arrival. MTU should always match between the ends of the same link. -- Peter _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
