About MTU

Hello,

Recently, I found that the MTU settings of the environment are inconsistent

VLAN MTU = 1500

DefaultRoute MTU = 9000

 

1. Which MTU is the final packet transmission applied to?
2. If I directly change the MTU of the VLAN to 9000, will there be any problem? (affect the service?)

Any Help is appreciate.

    Typically you will not need to change the MTU, but the VLAN MTU is the one for frames leaving the device and onto external switching infrastructure.
