Hi,
these are both valid points. It does not make too much sense to get
max value for MTU and I'd say we should either get min or simply get
interface setting and don't change the current behavior for this particular
one.
use_tempaddr will have special treatment too since it can range from:
use_tempaddr - INTEGER
Preference for Privacy Extensions (RFC3041).
<= 0 : disable Privacy Extensions
== 1 : enable Privacy Extensions, but prefer public
addresses over temporary addresses.
> 1 : enable Privacy Extensions and prefer temporary
addresses over public addresses.
Default: 0 (for most devices)
-1 (for point-to-point devices and loopback devices)
