Diagnostic Details
__________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
An ICMP Fragment Reassembly Time Exceeded message has been sent.
__________________________________________________________________
Probable Cause(s):
1. A host may send this message if it cannot reassemble the fragments (due to
missing fragments) on time.
2. There may be a lot of missing IP fragments (possibly due to NFS traffic or
network overload).
3. The routing tables may be incorrect on the source.
__________________________________________________________________
Recommended Action(s):
1. Check the routing tables of the source.
2. Check the netmask configuration of the source.
3. Check for missing IP fragments.
4. May need to upgrade the host that sent this message.
