Description Olimp Bockowski 2016-05-25 06:00:06 EDT

Description of problem:

In case of multiple network interfaces there should be an option to set different MTU. 
This RFE depends on:
1298612 - [RFE] RHEV-H should allow configuring multiple nics

The purpose for that is self-hosted engine implementation. It is wise to use different network for self-hosted engine Storage Domain with customer MTU what enables jumbo frames. 


How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. trying to set MTU in TUI

Actual results:

no field to set MTU

Expected results:

field with MTU value

Comment 1 Fabian Deutsch 2016-05-26 05:27:39 EDT

I've moved this to Cockpit, because Cockpit is the primary administration interface of RHEV-H 4.

Comment 3 Marius Vollmer 2016-06-27 09:39:22 EDT

I'll add a configuration dialog for "Ethernet", which will allow setting the MTU.
