Hi,

iperf3 setup:
iperf3 server(docker app) -------------------  iperf3 client
machine1                                           machine2

version:
iperf3 server:3.5
iperf3 client: 3.1.7

start the server:
iperf3 -s

Trying to check TCP traffic with different TCP segments size using the
flag --set-mss.
Initially tried setting --set-mss more than 10k, got below response
from iperf3 client.
iperf3: parameter error - TCP MSS too large (maximum = 9216 bytes)

So start the traffic with mss value set as 9216 bytes as below.
client:
iperf3 -c <server ip> --set-mss 9216

captured the sent packets and analyzed in wireshark and found most of
the packets with TCP segment size has large as 29k bytes.

why the --set-mss has no effect on the sent packets?
Is there any other option to limit the TCP packet size?

Thanks and Regards,
Mohan
