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