Hi Robert,

The output is (truncated to only that NIC)

LINK         PROPERTY        PERM VALUE          DEFAULT        POSSIBLE

sfxge0       mtu             rw   1500           1500           1500
sfxge1       mtu             rw   1500           1500           1500


I am afraid I don’t have a special relationship with them but lets first
figure what is going on.

Alex

Hi Alex,

What does dladm show-linkprop -p mtu show for that device? From my read
of the driver source code, the maximum MTU should be 9202 for the
Solarflare cards.

 In this case, I think we should better understand what's going on. That
 said, more generally, we're not in a position to update the driver as it
 was written by Solarflare and at least, at Joyent, we don't have
 documentation or specifications to do the work. If you have a
 relationship with Solarflare it may be worth talking to them about this,
 though we're happy to help them (and other vendors) as we can.
 
 That said, depending on what this is, we can still potentially make
 changes without that information.
 
 Robert
