PLPMTUD requires a separate, direct control channel from the egress to the ingress that provides positive feedback; the direct channel is not blocked by policy filters and the positive feedback ensures fail-safe operation if feedback messages are lost [RFC4821]. I'm very much in favour of working on better ways of doing Path MTU discovery. A blanket statement of "use "PLMTUD" seems very premature though. RFC1981 has 70 citations: http://www.arkko.com/tools/allstats/citations-rfc1981.html Could you expand on your view of how this pertains to advancing RFC1981? Best regards, Ole
