I tend to run into this table often and has been a good reference for
me.

This table relates specifically to system MTU:

This would suggest 'system mtu 1504' would be appropriate.

I've been bashing my head against the wall all day for a definitive 
answer on this:

On a Cisco switch that supports QinQ (3550, 3750, ME3400, 3560 etc)


What is the _minimum_ value I need to set the system MTU to, to do 
QinQ?  1504?  1522?  1526?  1546?

I can't seem to find one concise answer...


Thanks!!
