Dear colleagues,

This new RIPE Labs article (contributed by Emile Aben) talks about 
trying to send large packets over the Internet. Above a certain size, 
these packets will have to be fragmented, which is known to cause 
problems. In both IPv4 and IPv6, we see approximately 10% of RIPE Atlas 
probes that are unsuccessful in pings with fragmented packets, while 
they don't encounter problems with smaller unfragmented packets.

Please find the detailed results on RIPE Labs:

Kind regards,
