[c-nsp] ip tcp mss on sup720

Hi Javier,

The command reference indicates that the "ip tcp mss" global command
is applicable only to TCP sessions terminating on or originating from
the local device.

The "ip tcp adjust-mss" interface command was integrated in
12.2(33)SXH. I've confirmed that I don't see it in 12.2(18)SXF5. Are
you in a position to upgrade? If not, I assume you are out of luck and
will need to look for an alternative option.

cheers,
Dale
