Hi All

MX480
Junos 9.6 R3

We are experiencing some MTU issue on one of our circuit.

We have been provided a circuit by a 3rd party provider that only supports
MTU size 1518,

Unfortunately it seems they cannot provide Jumbo Frames,

However for our backbone we required to have Jumbo Frames supported.

My question is , is there any such option as MTU compression available ?

something that would allow a packet of 9192 coming into our MX480 , then be
comrpessed to 1518 accross the Circuit provider link, then De-compress on
our MX480 on the other end ?

I have been looking on docs but couldnt anything as such

your help much appreciate, if someone came accross similar and found a
workaround , please share

Thanks
