What are the L1 and L2 sizes of an IPv6 packet with 16 bytes of extension headers, plus TCP header, sent over an 802.1Q ethernet trunk?
If the MTU along a given path is 1500 bytes, what’s the maximum payload that can be sent in an IPv4 packet with TCP header and 8 bytes of TCP options? And what’s the resulting maximum effective payload transmission rate if the media speed is 25G (under ideal conditions, assuming no retransmissions)?
