### TCP Maximum Segment Size (MSS) Clamping

TCP session initial setup messages that include a Maximum Segment Size (MSS) value, which controls the size limit of packets transmitted during the session. The packet core will now automatically set this value, where necessary, to ensure packets aren't too large for the core to transmit. This reduces packet loss due to oversized packets arriving at the core's interfaces, and reduces the need for fragmentation and reassembly, which are costly procedures.

### Improved Packet Core Scaling
41+
42+
In this release, the maximum supported limits for a range of parameters in an Azure Private 5G Core deployment increase. Testing confirms these limits, but other factors could affect what is achievable in a given scenario.

The following table lists the new maximum supported limits.
44+
45+
| Element | Maximum supported |
46+
|------------------------|-------------------|
47+
| PDU sessions | Enterprise radios typically support up to 1000 simultaneous PDU sessions per radio |
48+
| Bandwidth | Over 25 Gbps per ASE |
49+
| RAN nodes (eNB/gNB) | 200 per packet core |
50+
| Active UEs | 10,000 per deployment (all sites) |
51+
| SIMs | 20,000 per ASE |
52+
| SIM provisioning | 10,000 per JSON file via Azure portal, 4 MB per REST API call |
