Usage Information
If the packet includes a Layer 2 header, the dierence between the link MTU and IP MTU (ip mtu command)
must be enough bytes to include the Layer 2 header.
When you enter the no mtu command, Dell Networking OS reduces the IP MTU value to 1536 bytes.
Link MTU and IP MTU considerations for port channels and VLANs are as follows.
port channels:
• All members must have the same link MTU value and the same IP MTU value.
