before everyone gets really excited about masquerading and adsl, i
think i've uncovered a bug in telstra's end of the adsl
connection.. more details later, i just want to confirm some things
first:
i presume i'm right in saying that i should *NEVER* see a fragmented
TCP packet? (cos the DF bit is set)
anyone care to give me a brief summary of how atm works? ;)
all i know about atm is its connection-oriented and has really small
(53 bytes?) packets.
specifically, what does atm do with (as a hypothetical example) a
packet of 1500 bytes? (my two bits of atm knowledge imply it isn't
going to do the normal IP fragmentation)
(i spent half of yesterday staring at multiple tcpdump's and
traceroute's - had to rebuild my frontal lobes by playing starcraft
(on linux, of course) til 4am ;)
