Change MTU Size on 10G NICs/VLANs

[spetrillo]

Hello all,

I have an Intel X550 2 port network adapter. I would like to change the MTU of the ports first, which in turn will allow me to change the MTU on the OPNsense interaces that are supported by this 2 port adapter. I have tested that ifconfig ix0 mtu 9000 works when I SSH to the firewall. Now I wanted this to persist through reboots and I added ifconfig ix0 mtu to the tunables section but it does not persist. I am back to 1500. Am I doing something wrong with this?

Thanks,
Steve

"Interfaces: [x550]" -> "Generic configuration" -> "MTU" doesn't do it? (I don't use an MTU >1500, so I don't care to try it.)
