This sort of seems like a bug, but not sure
If I had 2 interfaces, one tun1, pppoe with an MTU of 1492, and one
ethernet, a normal MTU of 1500.
if the default route was via tun1, and I did a
route change default <ip of gateway on the ethernet>
the MTU stays at 1492
e.g. on my RELENG_7 box
0[cage]# route add 1.1.1.1/30 64.7.157.1
add net 1.1.1.1: gateway 64.7.157.1
0[cage]# route get 1.1.1.1
route to: 1.1.1.1
destination: 1.1.1.0
mask: 255.255.255.252
gateway: dslborder1.sentex.ca
interface: tun0
flags: <UP,GATEWAY,DONE,STATIC>
recvpipe sendpipe ssthresh rtt,msec rttvar hopcount mtu
expire
0 0 0 0 0 0 1492
0
This is correct. The MTU on the PPPoE interface is 1492
0[cage]# route change 1.1.1.1/30 192.168.0.3
change net 1.1.1.1: gateway 192.168.0.3
0[cage]# route get 1.1.1.1
route to: 1.1.1.1
destination: 1.1.1.0
mask: 255.255.255.252
gateway: 192.168.0.3
interface: bge0
flags: <UP,GATEWAY,DONE,STATIC>
recvpipe sendpipe ssthresh rtt,msec rttvar hopcount mtu

0[cage]# ifconfig bge0

The MTU should be 1500 after the route change no ?
