Hello,
Did something change in 6.2? If my mtu size on rl0 is 1280 it won't
accept a larger incomming packet.
kernel: rl0: discard oversize frame (ether type 800 flags 3 len 1514 > max
1294)
I don't think it worked this way in the past.
Won't this affect pmtud?
man page for ifconfig says mtu limits size of "transmission" not reception.
"mtu n Set the maximum transmission unit of the interface to n,
default
is interface specific."
TIA,
Steve
