Release Information

Statement introduced in Release 8.5 of Junos OS.

Description

Configure TCP maximum segment size (TCP MSS) for the following packet types:

  • All TCP packets for network traffic.
  • GRE packets entering the IPsec VPN tunnel.
  • GRE packets exiting the IPsec VPN tunnel.
  • TCP packets entering the IPsec VPN tunnel.

If all the four TCP MSS options are configured simultaneously, then the order of preference is as follows:

  • If TCP packet enters an IPsec VPN tunnel, then an ipsec-vpn mss value has high priority over all-tcp mss value, hence ipsec-vpn mss value is set.
  • If TCP packet enters GRE , then gre-in mss value overrides all-tcp mss value, hence gre-in mss value is set.
  • If TCP packet exits GRE, then all-tcp mss value overrides gre-in mss value, hence all-tcp mss value is set.

Options

The remaining statements are explained separately.
