Disable ipv4 fragmentation

2007-04-24 Por tema J HU

Dear experts,

I'm working with sockets in a debian with a version of kernel 2.6.x, and I'd 
like to disable the fragmentation of the ipv4 introduce.
I have read that there was the option of modified the file 
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_always_defrag but it doesn't exist.
So I'm totally lost and I need to disable that fragmentation or change the 
size to the maximum of 65535.

Anyone can help me?

Thanks in advance!

None of the lists you've sent this to are appropriate forums for this
question; redirecting to debian-user.

What do you expect the system to do with oversized packets instead of
fragmenting them?  Discard them?

Fragmentation is used any time a given packet is too large to fit inside a
single frame of the underlying transport, as determined by the network
interface's MTU.

Gracias :)

Guillermo: Probablemente inici� todo este desmadre de la manera
menos adecuada posible - a�n as�, creo/espero que haya sido lo
correcto. Te pido que no presentes esto como un reporte - Hay bastante
trabajo pendiente para ver, incluso si tienes ya una propuesta
s�lida, si puedes convocar a los debianeros de la regi�n a que
vayan. Te pido que, si contin�as impulsando esto, lo veas como
promotor, no como alguien a quien le encargan reportes. Y muy
importante: Si tanto t� como los venezolanos est�n interesados
en recibir un minidebconf, p�nganse de acuerdo para no ponerse en
discordia :)

Saludos,
