Jeff, know that, under Linux, they do that, but it doesn't make it correct. :-) It just makes it confusing. It's one of the reasons that I think so many people confuse MTU and MSS. I agree. Just for the record, ImageStream supports but does not recommend using CIPE as our first choice.

Hi Tom, Ran this past engineering: > Vlan is level two information. A VLAN packet has a different type in the Ethernet header, which is read by the card driver. So a VLAN aware driver will allow a packet which physical size is 1518 bytes long (1500 bytes of payload + 2*6 of ethernet address + 2

Charles, I asked one of our Engineers to clarify on Large Packet Support On Linux Routers and VLAN vs IPSEC. Here is his response. Vlan is level two information. A VLAN packet has a different type in the Ethernet header, which is read by the card driver. So a VLAN aware driver will allow a pac

MikrotikOS and various Manufactuers (Trango) have hacked the drivers to allow larger size packets. For example, MPLS 100 mbps
