--- Comment #3 from Eugene Grosbein <eugen@freebsd.org> ---
It is pretty normal for PPP protocol to negotiate mtu=3D1500 if both sides =
are
configured so. Even PPPoE over non-jumbo ethernet frames with its own mtu=
=3D1500
can, nevertheless, negotiate and run with tunneling mtu=3D1500 if both peers
support LCP multilink extensions over single link.

It is just fine for some routers to keep persistent PPPoE connections, too.

As ppp(8) manual page says, one should use "maximum" keyword to make hard u=
pper
limit on PPP mtu/mru values.
