[cisco-nas] Windows 10 with AS5400

Joseph,

As a matter of course, I always just set adjust-mss to 1300 (or whatever 
my fancy is that day) on all edge routers, i.e. the routers that are 
clients' first-hop gateways.

You might not want to set it on your more core routers, because this 
could impact performance.  (On the other hand, it might benefit 
performance, if it allows you to avoid doing fragmentation [and even 
worse, reassembly, if your routers are tunnel endpoints that do that 
sort of thing.])

Now, if you *only* see this problem on your dialup clients, then I 
suppose you could be conservative and set it only on your 5400s.  But I 
can tell you that I absolutely see this problem affecting Windows 10 
Creators Update clients in other topologies (e.g. Wi-Fi, which is my 
bailiwick nowadays.)

Best regards,

Aaron
