I'll trying to setup mtu to 1400, why I don't see it by ifconfig command ?

From mpd.conf:
....
        set link mru 1400
        set link mtu 1400
....

#mpd -b

#ifconfig -a:
ng0: flags=8890<POINTOPOINT,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ng1: flags=8890<POINTOPOINT,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ng2: flags=8890<POINTOPOINT,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ng3: flags=8890<POINTOPOINT,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ng4: flags=8890<POINTOPOINT,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

After connecting:
#ifconfig -a:
ng0: flags=88d1<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 1.1.1.1 --> 10.0.2.1 netmask 0xffffffff
ng1: flags=8890<POINTOPOINT,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ng2: flags=8890<POINTOPOINT,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ng3: flags=8890<POINTOPOINT,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ng4: flags=8890<POINTOPOINT,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

After disconnected:
#ifconfig -a:
ng0: flags=8890<POINTOPOINT,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1496
ng1: flags=8890<POINTOPOINT,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ng2: flags=8890<POINTOPOINT,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ng3: flags=8890<POINTOPOINT,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ng4: flags=8890<POINTOPOINT,NOARP,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
