I think the slave interface mtu will be used. > I'm testing this post-up hook which I think covers all of the cases. yep that script looks good. only thing i can think of is, what if an interface's inet6 section is specified (and setup) first, before the interface's inet section? e.g. auto eth0 iface eth0 inet6 static address 2001:dbe::1/64 mtu 1480 iface eth0 inet static address 10.0.0.1 mtu 1500 would that cause the device mtu to be (re)set to 1500, after the ipv6 mtu had been set? That would reset the ipv6 mtu to 1500. Can the ordering of inet/inet6 sections always be inet before inet6? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1609367 Title: ifupdown does not set ipv6-only large mtu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifupdown/+bug/1609367/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
