Transport Hangout 30 Nov 2017
The SCTP related addition to IPFW was reviewed in D13239 and committed in r 326233. Thanks to ae@ for the review.
D12586 still needs some review.
tuexen@ asked about wether using the IPV6_USE_MIN_MTU on an unconnected TCP socket should also affect the sending of the MSS option, i.e. the incoming direction. According to RFC 3542, the option focusses in the sending direction only. When affecting the MSS option, the receiving direction is also affected. Solaris does this for a reason to be conservative. It seems good to be conservative, so tuexen@ will implement this and put a patch up for review.
- It was realised that gnn@ cancelled the call, but there were also no other issues to be discussed by the participants of the call.
- Next meeting: December, 14th.
