And is that the one that traverses the 3550 with the 1500 byte MTU? 

Both connection traver through the 3550. I will disable the command on 7206 vxr. thanks

Re-read what we said. You should be able to test the MTU theory by 
disabling path-mtu-discovery, which will cause MSS to fail back to the 
minimum 576.
