I think that the MTU on LO is pretty irrelevant in general.

If it does matter, larger is probably better.

Hi

I just see that the mtu in lo is different from standard eth 1500

Any meaning of it?

eg:
Standard eth 1500

in linux. lo mtu 16436

in solaris. lo mtu is 8232

How about cisco / juniper loopback?

Thank you so much
