mtu n Set the MTU [Maximum Transmit Unit] value to n. Unless the peer
requests a smaller value via MRU negotiation, pppd will request that the ker-
nel networking code send data packets of no more than n bytes through the PPP
network interface. Note that for the IPv6 protocol, the MTU must be at
least 1280.
