Set MTU on Guest

I don't understand why this was not integrated yet. There are clearly multiple use cases for this. It can be a hidden option (advanced checkbox) just like with the NICs for the host.

Thanks
it's not available in gui, but you can already add ",mtu=xxxx" with command line or in vm config file.
 
Hi All, I needed this feature (mtu), so i had to correct patches from Tacid (good work, thank U).

Code:
patch -d /usr/share/pve-manager/js/  < pvemanagerlib_mtu.patch
patch -d /usr/share/perl5/PVE/ < qemu_server_mtu.patch

systemctl restart pvedaemon
systemctl restart pveproxy

Tested on:
pve-manager/7.2-3/c743d6c1 (running kernel: 5.13.19-6-pve)

Why wasn't this merged yet? A patch was send back in 2018, followed by other patches.

Thanks

Maybe you did not enable the "Advanced" view? Please check again.
