Do I need 'crypto ipsec df-bit clear'?

I have a VPN tunnel between an 871 and 877, the tunnel seems to be fine, but checking the tunnel using SDM shows an error.

Checking the tunnel status... Up

Encapsulation :330231

Decapsulation :393226

Send Error :7939

Received Error :0

-----

A ping with data size of this VPN interface MTU size and 'Do not Fragment' bit set to the other end VPN device is failing. This may happen if there is a lesser MTU network which drops the 'Do not Fragmet' packets.

1)Contact your ISP/Administrator to resolve this issue. 2)Issue the command 'crypto ipsec df-bit clear' under the VPN interface to avoid packets drop due to fragmentation.

-----

Are the send errors anything to worry about?

Do I need to issue the 'crypto ipsec df-bit clear' on the routers?

Any info would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Gareth
