I want to open a discussion on this topic, I&rsquo;m sure many of you fine freeswitchers have encountered the pain of exceeding the MTU and things not handling it properly. &nbsp;I&rsquo;ve also see this mindset that blocking all ICMP will somehow make your network more secure, In doing this you&rsquo;re actually breaking PMTU and the internet in general. &nbsp;So check your firewalls, if you&rsquo;re blocking repent now and fix it&hellip; Input and discussions would be welcome on this topic.<br>


<br>
I think this issue is more of an issue facing residential installs vs commercial installs&hellip; What have you seen?<br>
