Users Guide

● The VLAN link MTU and IP MTU must be less than or equal to the link MTU and IP MTU values
configured on the VLAN members. For example, the VLAN contains tagged members with Link MTU
of 1522 and IP MTU of 1500 and untagged members with Link MTU of 1518 and IP MTU of 1500. The
VLAN’s Link MTU cannot be higher than 1518 bytes and its IP MTU cannot be higher than 1500 bytes.
NOTE: When configuring IP MTU on an interface, make sure to set the same or maximum IP MTU
value on both ingress and egress interfaces to make IPv4 traffic flow.
The following shows the difference between Link MTU and IP MTU.
