Even 802.1q tags require explicitly lowering the mtu to 1496 to work. I thought the IP layer was supposed to fragment packets if they do not fit in the underlying ethernet's MTU. (What's the point about fragmentation, otherwise?) _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users |
