And they're not directly connected eBGP peers? Those default to using
the interface MTU. Internal neighbors should default to 536 (or 516 or
thereabout) AFAIK. At least that's how it's been for our 6500s running
SXF for years.

Strange though if the OP example of an eBGP peer is directly connected,
yet still uses 536 as default MTU.
