Umthetho we-MSS usebenza ku-router, kodwa awufiki ku-Squid
Sebenzisa umqondo we-MTU kuma-TCP axhumene ahlukene avulwa yi-proxy, esikhundleni sokucabanga ukuthi wonke amaphakethe adlula ku-FORWARD.
Umlawuli wengeza i-TCPMSS clamping ku-FORWARD. Ukuhamba kwedatha okuqondisiwe kuyathuthuka, kodwa ukulanda nge-Squid yendawo kusalinda. Ukuxhumana kwe-proxy newebhusayithi akukona nje ukuxhumana kwe-TCP komsebenzisi okudlula kulelo chungechunge.
Ku-proxy ejwayelekile eqeda ukuxhumana, ukuxhumana ohlangothini lomsebenzisi kuphela endaweni. I-proxy yakha ukuxhumana kwe-TCP kwesibili okuya emthonjeni. Ku-Linux, amaphakethe enzelwe lokho kuxhumana alandela indlela yokuphuma yendawo.
