IF the community can declare it a bug for non-4821 hosts to send jumbos (presumably anything larger than 1500 bytes) then this makes matters easy for tunnels; the tunnel could simply look at the LinkMTU of the underlying physical interface and admit the packet if it is no larger than LinkMTU. If the community *cannot* declare it to be a bug, then tunnels will have to perform some special handling to support jumbos. Right?
