    <description>I will apologize in advance if there is a better community for this question, I guessed as to where it could go.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN style="text-decoration: underline; color: #333333;"&gt;Background&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;We have a number of locations which we have extended our Fabric.
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;21 locations that connect to our CORE via a subscribed L3 service.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;The service handles routes to each node by static route definition.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;The service has a subscribed MTU of 3900.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;4 locations that connect to our CORE via dark fiber or a shared L2 service (METRO) where the VLAN ids are unique to the fiber use partners.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;We've extended the fabric from our CORE (VSP7400s) to each of the locations which can be a VSP4900 or XA14800 depending on that location.
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;All system MTUs are 1950.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;ISIS Adjacencies are up.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;ISIS LSDB shows all locations.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;ISIS SPBM I-SID shows all currently active C-VLANs with I-SIDs.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;L2 VSN traffic works with the conditions described below.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;Issue Description&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;L2 VSNs between dark fiber/L2 service connected locations &lt;EM&gt;have no issue with any flows&lt;/EM&gt;.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;L2 VSNs between the L3 subscribed service connected locations have no issue as long as the &lt;EM&gt;MTU doesn't exceed a given value&lt;/EM&gt;.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Example:
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;(Windows 10 System)
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;[WORKS] ping A.B.C.D -l 1470&amp;nbsp;&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;[FAILS] ping A.B.C.D -l 1741&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;SPAN style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;Troubleshooting&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Verified MTU settings between L3 subscribed service connected locations:
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;(Windows 10 System)
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;[WORKS] ping A.B.C.D -l 1472 -f
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;A.B.C.D is a non-fabric endpoint reached via L3 subscribed service.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Removed 2 devices reachable via the L3 subscribed service from our main fabric and created a new one between those devices themselves.
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Used multiple incrementing values per test for command on both sides of fabric:
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;logical-intf isis 1 dest-ip A.B.C.D mtu ABCD
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;ABCD --&amp;gt; 1950, 2000, 2050&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Same results.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Changed the fabric endpoints to both be XA1480s and recreated a fabric between them.
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Same results.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;SPAN style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;Question&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Can someone recommend some testing or have ideas on how to solve this issue?&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Thank you in advance.</description>
