After checking the code of hping, I find the 'mtu' parameter of hping is the payload of a IP packet. So the packet you captured should be 20iphdr + 20tcphdr + 140data, 20tcphdr + 140data == 160("mtu" of hping), no fragmentation is needed. -- Regards, Changli Gao(xiaosuo@xxxxxxxxx) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
