Guys,   
      
     I have two linux machines (A and B) connected to same link (ethernet). The   
   MTU supported is 1500.   
      
   If I change the mtu to 1280 of one the host (say B), then can I send an ICMP   
   echo packet from node A (of max size as per its mtu which is 1500) to node B ?   
      
   Will host B be able to receive a packet whose size is greater than its MTU ?   
      
   Is there a way host A can discover the decreased MTU of B and then can send an   
   ICMP packet of lower size ?   
      
      
   thanks,   
   rahul
