Is there any convenient way to tell linux distributions that the local subnet can handle 9k jumbos (or whatever) but that anything routed out must be 1500?
I currently have this solved by just sticking hosts on two vlans, one that has the default route and another that only has the jumbo capable hosts. ... but this seems kinda stupid.

See "mtu" option in ip-route(8): * https://man.archlinux.org/man/ip-route.8.en#mtu https://man.archlinux.org/man/ip-route.8.en#mtu The BSDs also have an "-mtu" option in route(8): * https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?route(8) https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?route(8) * https://man.openbsd.org/route https://man.openbsd.org/route
