Release Information
Command introduced before JUNOSe Release 7.1.0.
ip keyword made optional in JUNOSe Release 7.2.0.
Description
Specifies the MSS value for TCP to use. The no version removes the MSS value, and
the router uses the advertised MSS derived from the MTU of the output interface.
NOTE: The MSS value is equal to the MTU value minus the IP or IPv6 and TCP headers.
This means that the MSS value is generally 40 bytes less than the MTU (for IPv4) and
60 bytes less than the MTU (for IPv6.
