I'm thinking that this feature would need to be able to be toggled
on/off, because it will be noisy on networks that are trying to
circumvent censorship systems, making for easy discovery of openvpn
tunnels in Egypt / China / India / etc.
It does look like a significant improvement for normal
Hello,
I would like to gauge interest in including my upcoming MTU patch into
the 2.5 release, and also to notify you that I am working on this patch,
to avoid effort duplication, if any.
Description of the "MTU auto-negotiation" patch:
MTU settings will be fully auto-negotiated between
On Windows 7 at least you can set the MTU with netsh:
netsh interface $PROTO set subinterface $TUNDEV mtu=$MTU store=active
Where PROTO is 'ipv4' or 'ipv6' and the others are even more obvious.
OpenVPN doesn't appear to do this; it seems to leave the MTU untouched
and instead query the TAP

Russ,
Have you tried the tracepath utility to attempt to measure the Path MTU?
Are the routers in the path properly forwarding ICMP code 3 (destination
unreachable), and ICMP code 4 (fragmentation needed but don't-fragment bit set)?
Most MTU problems are caused by routers and firewalls which do
