Hi, Jean-Pascal Billaud pointed us to an interesting question: Currently we do not check in the LRO receive path whether TCP packets are ip fragmented. They are aggregated in any case which might be wrong. The question is: Is it possible that we can get fragmented TCP packets without the tcp stack changing the MSS size? How can this be easily intentionally provoked for testing (only by using an extra gateway?)? Regards, Jan-Bernd
