option 212 for 6RD

[Trevor Warwick (twarwick)]

In IOS 15.2(4)M and later, the "ip tcp adjust-mss" command will also cause the same configured value to be used for adjusting IPv6 TCP connections. 

There's currently no modification applied to take account of the different IPv4/IPv6 network layer header sizes.

Oh, BTW, there's no "ipv6 tcp adjust-mss" command in Cisco IOS. Problem "solved" ;)
