The county sets the VDS MTU to 9000 so vSAN and later NSX tunnel endpoints can carry large frames without fragmentation. Which vSphere networking concept is that setting?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
MTU is the tunnel height on the vSphere road before you add extra wrapping. The county raises it on the VDS so vSAN and later Geneve frames fit. That is a vSphere uplink setting, not a firewall timer, a BGP timer, or a Carbon Black scan.
Full Explanation
Maximum transmission unit is a vSphere virtual-switch and uplink property. Operators set it large enough—often 9000—so vSAN and, later, NSX Geneve overlay between tunnel endpoints do not fragment on the underlay. Identifying that MTU lives on the VDS is associate-level vSphere networking; it is not a Distributed Firewall timer, a Tier-0 BGP interval, or an endpoint-security scan setting.
