Oliver,

Not sure what you are trying to do, but there are two approaches that may be
helpful. First, "ip mtu 1000" may meet your needs:

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122cgcr/fipras_r/1rfip2.htm#1081151

Or if you aren't necessarily trying to have the interface *SET* the MTU
size, but rather filter for certain sizes (for example if you have crypto
that add a header so you can only permit up to 1000 byte packets to go
across this interface), you could use a route map:

interface Ethernet0
ip address 131.108.1.1 255.255.255.0
ip policy route-map mtu1000max
!
route-map mtu1000max permit 10
match length 32 1000

Hope one of these is what you are looking for.
