When I was testing this , it failed to set the mtu to 1000 . And I 
suspect there's something uncertain in the behavior of this setting mtu. 
However I'll look into this.

I am considering using a more generic framework of testing this so that 
a list of values could be easily tested with the framework .  I've 
completed it , not yet tested.
