This attribute allows the RADIUS server to set the connection’s maximum transfer unit (MTU) size to align communications with the way an administrator has configured his network equipment. Briefly, the MTU setting is the largest packet size that can be transmitted over a connection. If the packet size is larger than this value, then the packet is broken up by routers along the path to the destination and then reassembled at the end point.
The RADIUS server will expect the value of this attribute to be
somewhere between 64 and 65,535. Most clients or servers will send
this attribute, containing a default MTU size of 1,500, inside an
Access-Accept packet.
Tip
It’s important to note that only implementations
that strictly support RFC 2138 prohibit the
Framed-MTU attribute from being passed in
Access-Request. The new RADIUS draft supports
this, but some implementations may not have been upgraded
to support this
change.
