Hi
I just see that the mtu in lo is different from standard eth 1500
Any meaning of it?
You transfer huge amounts of data on loopbacks similar to sockets.
Supporting large MTU's is appropriate, and given the virtual nature of
loopbacks, is probably generally designed to handle the buffers that
transfer the data.
How about cisco / juniper loopback?
Thank you so much
