Hi Roman,

Can you walk me through your use case a bit more, so I can wrap my mind
around the requirements?

ingress --plain--> wireguard --wireguard[plain]--> vxlan --vxlan[wireguard[plain]]--> egress

So my question is, why can't you set wireguard's MTU to 80 bytes less
than vxlan's MTU? What's preventing that or making it infeasible?

Jason
