Apparatus, and associated method, for facilitating communication of unfragmented packet-formatted data in a radio communication system

摘要

Apparatus, and an associated method, for determining an allowable packet size of data packets communicated by a mobile host to a correspondent host. Path MTU discovery is performed at a network-based proxy on behalf of the mobile host. Once the path MTU is determined, an ICMPTv6 message is sent to the mobile host to inform the mobile host of the allowable packet size.
