vSphere4 & VmWare Tools for Solaris.

I have Solaris 10 under ESX4.

I add VMXNET3 to my VM and install only kernel modules for vmxnet3.

All ok: At this time i have vmxnet3s0 ethernet device.

But i can not change MTU.

root@myhost:~# dladm show-linkprop -p mtu vmxnet3s0

LINK PROPERTY PERM VALUE DEFAULT POSSIBLE

vmxnet3s0 mtu r- 1500 1500 --

I researched source code of vmxnet3 for solaris and source code for linux. Source code for Solaris doesn't have function for change MTU.

Maybe at this time all features (Jumbo Frames, TSO,....) supported under Linux and Windows.

Am I right?
