| - **mtu 1900** -- ERSPAN adds about 42 bytes of extra header bytes by way of Ethernet/IP/GRE header. The default ERSPAN MTU is 1500 bytes, so when you mirror full length packets they can be truncated. Make sure you increase the MTU of the ERSPAN to 1700 or 1900 or even the maximum size of 9000 bytes. | - **mtu 1900** -- ERSPAN adds about 42 bytes of extra header bytes by way of Ethernet/IP/GRE header.
