Hi,

I have read several posts about to configure OVS bridge and jumbo frame (mtu 9000) but I am still confused, so I have some question:
  1. Is it possible to set mtu=9000 in the GUI when I create/modify an OVS Bridge?
  2. Is it possible to set mtu=9000 in the GUI when I create/modify an OVS IntPort?
  3. When I associate an OVS Bridge (with mtu=9000) to VMs, I have to set mtu=9000 also in the virtual network associated to the VMs? If yes, where, and how, can I do this in the GUI?
  4. Do I have to configure the nic in the VMs to mtu=9000 ?
Thank you very much and sorry for my English...
 
You have to set the mtu=9000 through the command line /etc/network/interfaces
It is not possible to change the mtu through the GUI

I usually change the mtu within the VM to 9000......
