that same rule. Even on a Guest LAN (which is isolated) you may have a router that passes frames between simulated and physical networks. In that case, it is more efficient to adopt the physical MTU limit for virtual hosts coupled to the QDIO Guest LAN. Regards, Dennis Musselwhite ([EMAIL PROTECTED
