# RFC 1337, TIME-WAIT Assassination Hazards in TCP, a fix written in 1992
# for some theoretically-possible failure modes for TCP connections. To

# RFC 2923 IPv6 uses PMTU by default to avoid segmenting packets at the
# router level, but its optional for IPv4. PMTU is meant to inform routers
# of the best packet sizes to use between links, but its a common admin
# practice to block ICMP ports that allow pinging, thus breaking this
# mechanism. Linux tries to use it, and so do I: if you have problems, you
# have a problem router, and can change the "no" setting to 1. "MTU probing"
# is also a part of this: 1 means try, and 0 means don't.
