Hi
Did you try to check via Tcpdump on your MX, the size of the MX ISIS Hello packet (with the hello padding) ?
Regards,
David

If its JUNOS, then just configure the MTU normally in the interface config on the switch.

Answers to several questions from various sources below:

The EX2500s are connected together via two 10G ports, aggregated into a portchannel. No errors on that or the interfaces on the EX2500s.

Duplex is not a problem.

There is, but I am not physically in front of the routers at the moment. My next test on Monday was to connect the J2320 up to ge-1/0/0 on the MX960.

Unfortunately, yes, I get the same behavior.
> Are the EX2500's configured for jumbos?
I thought of this earlier and checked the documentation, but while it does state that the EX2500 supports jumbo frames, there is absolutley nothing in the docs that says how to configure this feature. A search for 'jumbo' yields two hits and a search for 'mtu' yields nothing. I *can* ping from one router to the other with 1472-byte packets with the df-bit set, so I know that my 1500-byte packet can get through no problem.

This does nothing, unfortunately. Besides, the original setup was supposed to be that xe-1/2/0.1 be in a bridge-group with interface irb.1 as its routing interface, so point-to-point wouldn't meet my end goal. When that didn't work, I simplified it for troubleshooting to just be a plain vlan trunk routed interface.
> Can you try configuring family iso mtu 1500?
I've tried 1497 and 1500 to no avail. :-(
My feeling is that there is something happening inside the EX2500s of which I am not aware. These are brand new switches that I've no experience configuring, but I would think that if I can ping through them after configuring trunk and portchannel interfaces, that there'd really be no other config necessary in this very simple topology (besides MSTP).
Thanks to all for your suggestions thus far.
