Jumbograms and jumbo payloads
In IPv6, packets which exceed the MTU of the underlying network are labelled jumbograms, which consist of a jumbo payload. A jumbogram typically exceeds the IP MTU size limit of 65,535 octets, and provides the jumbo payload option, which can allow up to nearly 4GiB of payload data, as defined in RFC 2675. When the MTU is determined to be too large, the receiving host sends a 'Packet too Big' ICMPv6 type 2 message to the sender.
