Changing the MTU The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) is the maximum size an IP packet can be when encapsulated in a Layer 2 packet. If an IP packet is larger than the MTU allowed by the Layer 2 packet, the Layer 3 switch fragments the IP packet into multiple parts that will fit into the Layer 2 packets, and sends the parts of the fragmented IP packet separately

Nov 10, 2019 · The maximum transmission unit (MTU) feature on your router allows you to determine the biggest data size permitted on your connection. Generally, if your MTU value is too big for the connection, your computer/device will experience packet loss or drop of Internet connection. When to adjust MTU Values? What is MTU? In networking, maximum transmission unit (MTU) is a measurement representing the largest data packet that a network-connected device will accept.Imagine it as being like a height limit for freeway underpasses or tunnels: Cars and trucks that exceed the height limit cannot fit through, just as packets that exceed the MTU of a network cannot pass through that network. The maximum transmission unit (MTU) is the largest size frame (packet), specified in bytes, that can be sent over a network interface. The MTU is a configurable setting. The default MTU used on Azure VMs, and the default setting on most network devices globally, is 1,500 bytes. MAC/Layer-2/L2 MTU. L2MTU indicates the maximum size of the frame without MAC header that can be sent by this interface. Starting from the RouterOS v3.25 L2MTU values can be seen in "/interface" menu. L2MTU support is added for all Routerboard related Ethernet interfaces, VLANs, Bridge, VPLS and wireless interfaces.
RFC4821 can be useful for situations where the MTU may drop, but I know none of our traffic will be able to go above 1350, so I would like to set the MTU to a max of 1350 while allowing RFC4821 to automatically adjust for any time it drops below 1350.
