What I am meaning to suggest is something along the lines that the static MTU assignment "MUST be no less than 1280 and SHOULD be no greater than 1380".I think we were discussing the default value.
Yes; can also be thought of as the default static or default stateless value.
For default values, "something between 1280 and 1380" might not be sensible.
OK - then let's continue to discuss about 1380 and not dive into the "something between" rathole. (I am meaning to answer Itojun back on his question about the 1380.) > On the other

No - larger MTUs are certainly permissible in some circumstances. Fred ftemplin@iprg.nokia.com
