Bug Description

If an MTU is supplied when creating a network it is rejected if it is above global_physnet_mtu. If an MTU is supplied when updating a network it is not rejected even if the value is too large. When global_physnet_mtu is 1500 I can easily set MTU 9000 or even beyond through update. This is not valid.

Here we demonstrate that while network set works, network create does not. Network create seems to have the correct behavior.
