Thread-topic: set large mtu on bridged network
Hi all,
 
In a bridged setup, how we can set a large mtu(4k) for the interface on domU?
Eventhough 'ifconfig eth4 mtu 4000' command worked in my case, whether it reflect on the actual device?
Moreover I can't set mtu for the bridge as 4k. Setting any value above 1500 mtu shows the following error,
 
xen-152:~ # ifconfig xenbr1 mtu 4000
SIOCSIFMTU: Invalid argument
 
So how to set large mtu in a bridged network on xen?
 
regards
Masroor
