features:
- Use the value of the network 'mtu' attribute for the MTU
of virtual network interfaces such as veth pairs, patch
ports, and tap devices involving a particular network.
- Enable end-to-end support for arbitrary MTUs including
jumbo frames between instances and provider networks by
moving MTU disparities between flat or VLAN networks and
overlay networks from layer-2 devices to layer-3 devices
that support path MTU discovery (PMTUD).
upgrade:
- Does not change MTU for existing virtual network interfaces.
- Actions that create virtual network interfaces on an existing
network with the 'mtu' attribute containing a value greater
than zero could cause issues for network traffic traversing
existing and new virtual network interfaces.
fixes:
- Explicitly configure MTU of virtual network interfaces
rather than using default values or incorrect values that
do not account for overlay protocol overhead.
