Just talked to the developper of our PING checker and he confirmed that for the moment the limit is at 512 bytes and the "do not fragment"-bit is NOT set by his code. If all goes well he'll do some change to the PING-er next week and it will be added as new feature to v8 of Servers Alive (and as such also to the v7.9beta) dirk

(Without don’t fragment set, any large packet I send will get broken up) Regards, Spiros From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:salive@woodstone.nu] On Behalf Of dirk Sent: Friday, 9 October 2015 4:00 PM To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: RE: [SA-list] ping -l 1472 -f 10.10.10.10 On the CHECK tab you can when selecting the PING check option set the size of the packet too. dirk. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:salive@woodstone.nu (mailto:salive@woodstone.nu)] On Behalf Of Stratsianis, Spiros Sent: Friday, October 09, 2015 3:00 AM To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: [SA-list] ping -l 1472 -f 10.10.10.10 Hi, We sometimes have problems on our WAN links when carriers change MTU setting within their network. To trouble shoot we manually start pinging with a 1472 payload and ‘don’t fragment’ set. Can SA be set up to do the equivalent of ‘ping -l 1472 -f 10.10.10.10’?
