758 This option adds a `TCPMSS' target, which allows you to alter the
759 MSS value of TCP SYN packets, to control the maximum size for that
760 connection (usually limiting it to your outgoing interface's MTU
761 minus 40).
762
763 This is used to overcome criminally braindead ISPs or servers which
764 block ICMP Fragmentation Needed packets. The symptoms of this
765 problem are that everything works fine from your Linux
766 firewall/router, but machines behind it can never exchange large
767 packets:
768 1) Web browsers connect, then hang with no data received.
769 2) Small mail works fine, but large emails hang.
770 3) ssh works fine, but scp hangs after initial handshaking.
771
772 Workaround: activate this option and add a rule to your firewall
773 configuration like:
774
775 iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN \
776 -j TCPMSS --clamp-mss-to-pmtu

1235 lengths.
