Wow, good idea, i heard the tracepath6 first time, just checked, maybe i
can use this command.
What exactly i want to test is how the PMTUD works, because i don't have
host int the test scenario, just have the router, so need to simulate the
traffic from router, but my first thought is using the ping traffic, so
let's say if i change the MTU in the path to a low one, the ping traffic
will be dropped, the ping traffic cannot change the mtu automatically,
because i already define the traffic size in the ping packet.
The tracepath6 command as below, first line can show the pmtu.
tracepath6 www.ripe.net -n
