Essentially, I want all ACKs to be standalone ACKs (which would typically result in an IP datagram of 40-80 bytes in length depending on the size of the TCP header and assuming a standard IP header length of 20 bytes)? The reason I ask is because I've run into a scenario wherein a workstation is receiving an MSS of 1261 bytes during 3-way handshake, it is generating a 1301 byte IP packet (whic
