I usually set the interface physical MTU as high as it goes (per device), but
manually set protocol inet to MTU 1500 (for things like OSPF to work). This
allows for as-large-as-MTU-as-MPLS-can-do. Other address families aren't that
picky about MTU matching.
ge-1/0/5 {
description "LINK to another IP/OSPF/MPLS device - May or May not support
MTU 9192 on the physical.... but inet4/OSPF is 1500 so it works";
mtu 9192;
unit 0 {
family inet {
mtu 1500;
address 10.102.10.1/24;
}
family mpls;
}
}
