IPv6 packets sent on an interface. Use the
no
form to restore the default
setting.
Syntax
ipv6 mtu
size
no ipv6 mtu
size
- Specifies the MTU size. (Range: 1280-65535 bytes)
Default Setting
1500 bytes
Command Mode
Interface Configuration (VLAN)
Command Usage
• If a non-default value is configured, an MTU option is included in the
router advertisements sent from this device. This option is provided
to ensure that all nodes on a link use the same MTU value in cases
where the link MTU is not otherwise well known.
• IPv6 routers do not fragment IPv6 packets forwarded from other
routers. However, traffic originating from an end-station connected to
an IPv6 router may be fragmented.
• All devices on the same physical medium must use the same MTU in
order to operate correctly.
• IPv6 must be enabled on an interface before the MTU can be set.
Example
The following example sets the MTU for VLAN 1 to 1280 bytes:
Console(config)#
interface vlan 1
Console(config-if)#ipv6 mtu 1280
Console(config-if)#
