That's a much better statement.

I think you're thinking about this too hard, or maybe I wasn't explicit enough. Typing from a phone causes that. Yes, I'm staying if you are building the type of network where you have identified a large MTU is desirable on the L2 path, you want everything to be as high as possible, and you will be limited by the devices smallest MTU on the path.

It's perfectly fine to have a router-to-router OSPF /30 link that is carried across a PTP system with a 1600 byte MTU (older Bridgewave radios for instance), then another separate set of OSPF interfaces onwards from that same router, to another router, over a 9000 byte MTU radio bridge. Or whatever. On Thu, Sep 28, 2017 at 10:41 AM, Josh Reynolds < j...@kyneticwifi.com > wrote: <blockquote> MTU needs to be consistent on the entirety of the path.

I’m still unclear. My backbone is generally set for 9000+ MTU. Do I need to change my Mikrotik Ethernet ports attached to the Air Fiber units to a specific MTU?

Particularly for PTP bridge radios? I know it is for every serious PTP radio I've seen from almost every other manufacturer.

We know we can use it with either 1600 or 9000 byte MTU. But I find it amazing that there is no mention anywhere of max MTU (or MTU settings/capabilities in general) anywhere whatsoever in the ubnt AF24 users manual: https://dl.ubnt.com/guides/airfiber/airFiber_AF24_UG.pdf ctrl-f for "mtu"... nothing. People should not be required to google "af24 mtu 9000" and trawl through forum posts from non-ubnt-employee third parties on the ubnt forum to know if a PTP bridge product is going to work for a particular application or not. Same goes for the AF11FX and AF24HD. </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote>
