ipv6 mtu
Use the ipv6 mtu command in Interface Configuration mode to set the
maximum transmission unit (MTU) size, in bytes, of IPv6 packets on an
interface. This command replaces the default MTU with a new MTU value.
The IPv6 MTU is only observed for packets originating on the switch. Packets
forwarded by the hardware ignore the IPv6 MTU.
