Sample configuration error for MTU override
- Configure port8 with MTU override enabled:
config system interface edit "port8" set vdom "root" set type physical set snmp-index 10 set mtu-override enable set mtu 256 next end
- Go to Network > Interfaces and edit port8.
- Enter an IPv6 address (2000:11::11/64). An error message appears, Invalid IPv6 address, and lists the reasons for the error. In this example, the interface MTU setting must be at least 1280 for an IPv6 address.
