In an article entitled "Path MTU discovery in practice", it provides a way to enable smart MTU black hole detection or Packetization Layer Path MTU Discovery feature on Linux by typing these commands:



echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_mtu_probing
echo 1024 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_base_mss


However, it's for IPv4 only.



Therefore, how can I enable this feature for IPv6?
