1518 = 1500 payload(ie IP) + 18Byte ethernet header and trailer
You need the 6148A to go higher

Specs on WS-X6148-GE-TX say there is a maximum MTU of 1518:

However, on a 6500 running SXH, it will not let me use the mtu command
to adjust. I am trying to up the MTU for MPLS. Any way to do this
manually or is this something that's supported in hardware and
automatically upped slightly if a port were a trunk port, for example?

Trying to avoid purchasing WS-X6516-GE-TX or WS-X6748-GE-TX if possible.
