And (I know you know, but for others) that's why there needs to be ingress/egress fragmentation and reassembly to ensure that when the payload is smaller, the edge-to-edge transit payload size meets these minimums. All of this is in the doc already; if it's not clear from the doc, I would welcome suggestions on what to add. Joe
