question regarding mtu on an interface and globally and how the 2 interact
with each other...
i think i know part of it but i don't know which direction it works..

is it - if the interface exceeds it's own mtu, then it will fragment
packets in accordance with the system mtu? or is it the other way
around....
or....

is the global mtu the default for all interfaces and the interface mtu just
overrides the global setting?

TIA
