One year ago we released our Public Cloud Gateway and the Public Cloud Load Balancer. Thanks to the feedback from our customers, we would like to simplify the experience when you use those products: the main issue that our users faced was the configuration of the Private Network default MTU, which was historically set to 9000.
Change
Starting the 01/12/2023 any new Public Cloud private network will have a new default MTU value of 1500.
This will not impact any existing private network.
Note that:
you can still change it afterwards, this documentation page guides you if you need to change the default MTU.
we will not touch any existing network.
Who will be impacted
All users that create a new Public Cloud Private Network using OVHCloud Control Panel (Manager) / Openstack CLI / Openstack Horizon / Terraform with the default MTU
