For TCP MSS, it is in

1.4. Path MTU discovery and fragmentation

There are
three mechanisms to handle this issue: the path MTU discovery,
fragmentation and transport layer negotiation such as the TCP MSS
option.


Note that,

When implement TCP MSS, it overwrites the other actions. For the current 
stateless and stateful translators with MTU=1500 in the end systems, 
there is no need to modify the TCP MSS, since TCP MSS only counts the 
payload length.

Should we add this in the xlate document?
