I am trying to perform a simple but a little tricky task: I have to understand the maximum payload size of an UDP packet in order to avoid fragmentation of that.
Some suggestions ?
The technical term for this is "path mtu discovery". [....]
You should totally google it. There's a lot of stuff on what you're looking for, like: http://linux.derkeiler.com/Newsgroups/comp.os.linux.networking/2004-02/0873....
