libvirt users - Jan 2014 - jumbo frame

I would like to use jumbo frame for local interfaces, but I am not 
sure in which order to set it up.  Should it be set on the physical 
interface first, then on the bridge and on the guest, or in another 
way?  On some servers there are configurations with vlan on the bridge

When creating TAP devices for the guest, libvirt will copy the
MTU size from the bridge that the tap device is being added.
So just configure MTU on the bridge + physical device.
