RE: iperf server UDP response in IPv6 is fragemented


Apparently, you can use the '-l' size on the server too, which seems to
solve the problem.
How about setting it to automatically respond with the size the client uses,
unless otherwise specified? It seems the default is to reply with a 1470
bytes of UDP data.

Subject: iperf server UDP response in IPv6 is fragemented


I'm having the following problem:
The response from the iperf server (Linux, 2.4.19 +USAGI patches) in UDP,
with IPv6, is fragmented, since it is 1478 bytes in size. The same, but in
IPv4, is not fragmented (I assume it's due to the v6 header size).

Is there anything that can be done in order to reduce the server->client
response size, so it won't get fragmented?
