Title : The IPv6 MTU Label
Author : Jeroen Massar
Filename : draft-massar-v6man-mtu-label-01.txt
Pages : 10
Date : 2014-11-12
Abstract:
This document redefines the use of the IPv6 Flow Label field to allow
specification of the lowest MTU on a path that the packet travels,
thus in most cases avoiding the need for performing Path MTU
Discovery and the round-trip penalty that that occurs for processing
the ICMPv6 PTB and retransmitting the packets involved.
This specification allows graceful decrease of MTU so that large and
non-standard MTU sizes can safely be used on the Internet.
