--- Comment #20 from Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to jimp from comment #19)

Overall, I'd prefer the current behavior by default: there are environments
where it's necessary to respect MTU value supplied by the (properly configu=
red)
DHCP server. So we basically either support properly configured DHCP server=
s or
add a workaround for misconfigured DHCP servers. I think it's better to sup=
port
proper configurations rather than trying to solve problems created elsewher=
e.

But loosing remote access because of that could be unfortunate indeed. I'm
wondering how common is this type of misconfiguration? Maybe we can add a
release note about that?
