Description

Enables ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) size and fragment checking.

Syntax Description

  • Fragmented ICMP packets.

  • IPv4 ICMP pings packets with payload size greater than the maximum IPv4 ICMP-allowed size. (The maximum allowed size is configurable.)

  • IPv6 ICMP ping packets with payload size > the maximum IPv6 ICMP-allowed size. (The maximum allowed size is configurable.)

This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 12.0.
