Change the MTU Permanently (Oracle Solaris)
- Add this line in the /etc/driver/drv/i40e.conf file:default_mtu = desired-frame-size where desired-frame-size value can range from 1500 to 9706.
- Reboot the server.
- Another way to change the MTU permanently is with # dladm set-linkprop -p mtu=9706 net0.# dladm set-linkprop -p mtu=9706 net0
Change the MTU Temporarily (Oracle Solaris)
- Use the dladm(1M) command to modify MTUs.For example, where the device name is xnet0, this command increases MTUs to the maximum:# dladm set-linkprop [-t] -p mtu=9706 net0 The temporary setting lasts only until the next reboot of the server.
