Opis

The MTU is the "Maximum Transmission Unit", or in other words how much you can cram into a single IP frame. Any attempt to send larger frames will incur fragmentation or packet loss. The commonly accepted MTU value is 1500 bytes, defined for ethernet in IEEE802.3 (ethernet spec), however when you're talking about encapsulation such as ppp or vpn, you have to consider the overhead caused by the encapsulation.

As an example, if you PPP over ethernet (PPPoE) the MTU value for the ppp interface will likely be 1492 so that after the PPP the result still fits within the 1500 MTU of the ethernet interface.

If you then decide to run a VPN connection over the PPPoE connection, the MTU value for the VPN interface will be even lower it fits within PPPoE's 1492 MTU.

MTU discovery is done by sending out as large of frames as possible with the "Don't Fragment" set; if an ICMP error is returned, it tries again with a lower MTU value. Due to a combination of fear, paranoia and cluelessness, some people will block ICMP error messages, believing that they are the result of some evil hacker trying to artificially limit their MTU; the ICMP error is never recieved and no changes in frame size are made and the resulting performance is poor and unreliable.
