Description

I'm not sure of the exact scope of this issue, but I can at least say it happens when reproducing my environment.

Setup:
pfSense 2.3.2 x64
6x 1GbE Intel em interfaces.
2 1GbE interfaces combined into lagg0

Issue:
pfSense GUI shows that and the actual NICs are running at 1400MTU causing traffic issues on the LAN side downstream from the LAGG.
No interface changes can be made to increase the MTU on interfaces/VLANs involved in the LAGG.

I've attached the interfaces/vlans/lagg config XML that will start the issue.

We don't have anything that would be forcing that to 1400 that I can see. I have a local setup here with LAGG and VLANs and it's running at 1500 MTU all-around but it's igb.

If there is something specific setting that for em, it would be a problem in FreeBSD directly and not a problem in pfSense.

Is there any way you could try to replicate this on plain FreeBSD 10.3 with the same hardware?
