Title : Optimal Detecting Increases in PMTU
Author(s) : HAK GOO LEE,  PYUNG SOO KIM,  YOUNG KEUN KIM,  CHU KYO SHIN
 
Abstract :
    This document presents a new method for the detection of increases
    in PMTU using the newly defined Hop-by-Hop option header.
    To detect increases in a path's PMTU, a node does not increase its
    assumed PMTU unconditionally without considering network status,
    but measures its real PMTU, and then replaces the previous PMTU with
    new one. To measure node's real PMTU, the node sends the IP packet
    with the newly defined Hop-by-Hop option header to the destination
    node right before a timer expires. This can eliminate the chance of
    occurrence of packets being discarded and Packet Too Big messages
    being generated.
 
 
What do you think?
