VMware recommends setting the MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) to 1700 or greater for NSX deployments. This is to ensure that the VXLAN encapsulation, which adds overhead to the original Ethernet frame, can be accommodated without fragmentation. This MTU requirement includes the entire data center network, including inter-data center connections, to ensure consistent communication across all network components involved in the NSX deployment.
