Abstract
A path MTU size determination system includes a source host device that generates and transmits a path MTU size discovery packet. A plurality of switch devices in the path MTU size determination system provide a network path that couples a destination host device to the source host device. Each of the switch devices is configured to receive the path MTU size discovery packet transmitted by the source host device, provide a switch identity of that switch device and a MTU size supported by that switch device in a MTU size reporting header included in the MTU size discovery packet, and forward the path MTU size discovery packet. One of the switch devices will operate to determine a lowest MTU size in the MTU size reporting header, and another of the switch devices will cause the source host device to provide the lowest MTU size as its path MTU size.
