 1372 Bytes + ICMP header 8 Bytes + IP header 20 Bytes = 1400 Bytes.  1372 Bytes + ICMP header 8 Bytes + IP header 20 Bytes = 1400 Bytes. 
 +
 +To determine the Optimal MSS that can be used, take the result of the above test which is 1400 Bytes and subtract the potential TCP header and IP header value. 
 +
 +1400 Bytes - (IP header 20 Bytes + TCP header 20 Bytes) = 1360 Bytes. 
 +
 +So the Optimal MSS that can be used is 1360 Bytes. 
 +
 +On PA firewall to adjust the MSS value to 1360 Bytes, the Adjustment size has to be configured as 140 Bytes.
 +
 +1500 - 1360 = 140 Bytes
