form to restore the default setting.
Syntax
ipv6 mtu

- Specifies the MTU size. (Range: 1280-65535 bytes)
Default Setting
1500 bytes
Command Mode
Interface Configuration (VLAN)
Command Usage
◆
If a non-default value is configured, an MTU option is included in the router
advertisements sent from this device.
◆
The maximum value set by this command cannot exceed the MTU of the
physical interface, which is currently fixed at 1500 bytes.
◆
IPv6 routers do not fragment IPv6 packets forwarded from other routers.
However, traffic originating from an end-station connected to an IPv6 router
may be fragmented.
◆
All devices on the same physical medium must use the same MTU in order to
operate correctly.
◆
IPv6 must be enabled on an interface before the MTU can be set.
Example
The following example sets the MTU for VLAN 1 to 1280 bytes:
Console(config)#interface vlan 1
Console(config-if)#ipv6 mtu 1280
Console(config-if)#
