Re: [Xen-users] Problem MTU > 1500



Hi,
 
Thanks for your quick reaction.
 
Yes I am sure for all the interfaces (intern as extern) the MTU is set to 9000 ans also the database for the vif/pif/network(bridges) shows me MTU 9000.
The strange thing is when I set everything to 9000 and start the guest the bridgeX shows me MTU=1500 ("ifconfig -a" command used ) even the vif/pif/network database (xe vif-param-list, xe pif-param-list, xe network-param-list commands used) are showing me MTU 9000.
And my NIC are able to send 9000 frames. Because what I mentioned before when I ping from the host to an extern interface I do not have problems.
 
SO ra ra ra what do I wrong or is there still some other configure files in the host ot guest operating system which I did forgot???

Hi,

if you're sure, the interfaces are all set to 9k, i'ld expect your switch in between your
hosts is not capable of / not cofigured for 9k frames.

I'd only done 9k on  dom0 so far, but for having it available to domU I assume it needs to
be set in a persistant way. If you change your vifX.X interfaces that would be gone
if you shutdown/create your machine, wouldn't it?

Hi,
 
I am using XCP version 1.5beta (1.4.90) with for the host the kernel version 2.6.32.12-0.7.1.xs1.4.90.530.170661xen en for the guests reh6.1 as operating system.
When we  increase the MTU of the ethX, vifX and xenbrX to 9000 and also for other machines in our test envioranment and we give the command; ping -s 9000 <ip of extern machine> from the guest to an other machine
wich is not on the same host we do not get any response.
When we give the same command to an other guest on the same host the ping command succeeds.
When we ping from the host to other machines outside the host the ping command is also succeeds.
 
Has somebody ideas what I am doing wrong?
