[Nfd-dev] Changing the MTU size

Thank you for your response, that clarifies a lot of things. Then, is it possible to set the mtu using nfd.conf before the start-up?
What about the MAX_NDN_PACKET_SIZE in the tlv.hpp?

This command won't work for two reasons: (1) creating multicast faces
via nfdc is not supported, all multicast faces are created by NFD at
startup according to whitelist and blacklist settings in nfd.conf; (2)
manually setting the MTU via nfdc is supported only for unicast faces.
