Subject: [PVE-User] mtu setting for virtual ethernet
Date: Tue, 23 Mar 2021 13:03:45 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <c7502c66b470723af6f97c033b71f43d@konsec.com> (raw)
Hi Proxmox Users,
I learned from the Proxmox forum that appending mtu=1 to the network
definition of a virtual machine instructs the virtual ethernet device to
inherit the mtu from the corresponding bridge.
In my case
net0: virtio=FA:FF:FF:FF:FF:D8,bridge=vmbr15,mtu=1
and the bridge definition
iface vmbr15 inet static
address 10.21.15.11/24
bridge-ports enp35s0.4015
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0
bridge-vlan-aware yes
bridge-vids 2-4094
mtu 1400
According to my tests this seams to work indeed. The guest OS shows the
1400 mtu.
Question 1: Can the mtu=1 (magic value for auto mtu inheritance) be made
the default?
Question 2: It seams that appending mtu=1 breaks the webUI. I get
"Unable to parse network options".
Kind Regards
ppa. Martin Konold
