Hi,
Could someone say me, why the maximum packetsize in ping command is 8184
(ping -s 8184)? If I want to do a bigger packetsize than this i got
message like this:
tepsa:cys:/home# ping -s 65000 127.0.0.1
PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1): 65000 data bytes
ping: sendto: Message too long
ping: sendto: Message too long
ping: sendto: Message too long
ping: sendto: Message too long
ping: sendto: Message too long
^C
--- 127.0.0.1 ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss
Is there any way to bypass this limit? Should I recompile my
kernel/ping.c?
