Hasn't windows stopped supplying ipip on their newer OS's?

Presumably you can set the MTU at either end and both ends should figure it out.
Julian,
Is the kernel on the director still responsible for this problem? Is it
supposed
to be fixed?
Why is the default MTU for ipip packets 1480, rather than
1500+overhead_for_ipip=1520?
Is 1500 a hardware buffer size limit in the NICs? (ie hardware buffer=1500?)
