With Ubuntu 10.04, the system accepts "ifconfig eth1 mtu N" for any value of N up to 9000, and shows an MTU of N in response to 'ifconfig'. With 8.1-RELEASE (not 8.0 as stated before, sorry), the command 'ifconfig bge0 mtu 8000' produces an error: ifconfig: ioctl (set mtu): Invalid argument Same thing with 'mtu 1500', 'mtu 1400', etc. dn _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
