Well, let's look at it a different way.... As you follow the path through
your network, IF you were to send out a packet with 1504 bytes, would it
cause a problem on any of the "middle" switches?
If the answer is yes (which it likely is) then yes, everyone should be aware
of that.
;) Follow the frame/packet.

Subject: MTU for dot1q-tunnel
Dear Group,
Below is the topology,
SW1-------------------SW2
| |
| |
R1-----SW3------------------SW4--------R2
Trunks are configured among all switches and R1 & R2 are customer's routers.
We need to configure dot1q-tunnel on SW3 and SW4 to transparently pass the
traffic bewteen R1 & R2. My question is that should we need to increase mtu
only on SW3 & SW4 or we should change mtu to 1504 on all switches ??
