Hi,

seems that you have TSO enabled?
you can check the offloading features of your NIC with ethtool.

Best,

 Hi,
    I am confused with this in dmesg

All interfaces are configured with MTU of 1500 (netstat -i )and on physical switch also it is 1500.

I dont understand why it is showing above in dmesg,can some one explain me why something is trying to send Frames above 1500 and getting blocked by ovs,even if no interface has an MTU of 1500 < .Is there any way to find out what is trying to send frames larger than 1500.
