Bug Description
Suggested problem type: regression
Sub-system: networking
See also: https:/
I upgraded the server from 14.04 to 16.04. The networking was working fine and supported Jumbo Frames. But after the upgrade I am getting:
SIOCSIFMTU: Invalid argument
when trying to set the frame size.
I have three Dell servers with this problem. I know it has to do with with 16.04 and/or +HWE because I have still have the same model Dell servers running 14.04 and they have Jumbo Frames enabled.
