I have set up a VPN over an ADSL link and I am getting traffic snarl-ups as a result.
Previously this link was running without VPN and over PSTN. My guess is that the server is sending out packets which are now too big. 1. Am I correct in assuming that both freeswan and ADSL add over head to the packets? I seems to recall the figure of an MTU of 1412 coming in some where. 2. Am I correct in assuming that the best place to fix this is in the ifconfig setting for that particular interface on the server? Currently it has MTU 1500. What would be a suitable setting here. I also guess, since this is Redhat, that I am going to have to look in /etc/rc.d/init.d/network, is this assumption correct? TIA. -- Howard.
