Hi,
A few more minor things to add: -
1. If the packet is to be sent over the tunnel and needs to be fragmented we could send the Type=2, Code=0 to the source.
2. One of the documents I found was http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-savola-mtufrag-network-tunneling-05.txt . You could look at it.
Thanks,
Vishwas

Hi Obaid,
I think we do not require sending the PATH MTU to the original source at all. The original source when doing a Path MTU would use the tunnel and the PMTU would correctly work (the tunnel would be another link in the path).
Thanks,
Vishwas

Hi
Can intermediate routers do Path MTU discovery or the originator of packet willdo it ONLY?
for e.g.In case of VPN; canrouter for encapsulation do PMTU and send the "PMTU - (size of Data used for encaspulation)"to Source so encapsulation wont fragment the packet?
Thanks
