Steps:
1.set the mtu of the interface to be smaller than the the pre-created tap device
mtu of the precreated device: 2000
mtu set in the interface: 1400
# ip tuntap add mode tap name mytap0
# ip l set dev mytap0 mtu 2000
# ip l show mytap0
53: mytap0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 2000 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000

2.set the mtu of the interface to be larger than the the pre-created tap device
mtu of the precreated device: 2000
mtu set in the interface: 3000
