Reference Guide

• Members can have dierent Link MTU values. Tagged members must have a link MTU 4 bytes higher
than untagged members to account for the packet tag.
• The VLAN link MTU and IP MTU must be less than or equal to the link MTU and IP MTU values
congured 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.
The following shows the dierence between Link MTU and IP MTU.
