Fragmentation percentage is a calculation of the total number of IP segments fragmented for delivery to another host, divided by the total number of IP output segments minus the number of IP segments forwarded and discarded. Fragmentation allows delivery of a message through intermediate hosts that do not accept larger segment sizes. Excessive fragmentation can indicate a network configuration problem.
Isolate the cause of the problem using diagnostic procedures outlined in theIBM(R) z/OS(R) Communications Server: IP Diagnosis Guide.
Formula: Fragmentation Percentage >= 5
