Hello Emmanuel,

On which interface did you do the reduction? trust its on the local side of the link? and you used something similar to below:

ip tcp adjust-mss 1300

Perhaps you could check packet size that goes through and then configure with that, you can use the following(i am using debian):  ping  <other side url>-s 1300   (increase or reduce the MTU untill you get a perfect one and then apply the command above)

Cheers!

Hello all,
>i just configure an ipsec site to site vpn between Asa and a cisco 2811 router using cisco ASDM and CCP ,but the tunnel comes up when i did and extended ping and after a while it goes down i try use cisco configuration professional (ccp ) to trouble shoot the link and it bring out this error "A ping with data size of this VPN interface MTU size and 'Do not Fragment' bit set to the other end VPN device is failing. This may happen if there is a lesser MTU network which drops the 'Do not fragment' packets."
