I am looking for a way to modify the MTU on the virtual tunnel interface.
It seemed like there was a depricated setting 'overridemtu' that could be
configured in ipsec.conf.  However, when I configure:

conn home
        left=192.168.1.30
        leftsourceip=%config
        eap_identity=xxxxxxx
        leftid=xxxxxxx
        leftauth=eap
        leftfirewall=yes
        right=192.168.1.2
        rightid=192.168.1.2
        rightsubnet=172.16.90.0/24
        auto=add
        ike=3des-sha1-md5-modp1024
        overridemtu=1300

I get the following:

r...@shuttle2:/usr/local/etc# ipsec start
Starting strongSwan 4.3.5 IPsec [starter]...
charon is already running (/var/run/charon.pid exists) -- skipping charon
start
# unsupported keyword 'overridemtu' in conn 'home'
### 1 parsing error (0 fatal) ###

What is the proper way to set tunnel MTU?

I am needing to reduce tunnel MTU sizes, in order to prevent ESP/UDP
fragmentation (due to exceeding the ethernet interface MTU).  Re-assymbly of
large amounts of ESP/UDP packets is burdening my gateway network processors.

Help is greatly appreciated.
