Limiting scope to cloud-archive; raring actually has a sufficiently
recent version of openvswitch to not have this issue.

Title:
  PMTUD needs to be disabled for tunneling to work in many Grizzly
  environments.

Status in Ubuntu Cloud Archive:
  Triaged
Status in OpenStack Neutron (virtual network service):
  Invalid
Status in “quantum” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  In Grizzly, the version of OVS is lower than 1.9.0. As a result, tunnel path MTU
  discovery default value is set to 'enabled'. But internet-wide path MTU discovery
  rarely works, we need to add a configuration option to disable tunnel path MTU
  Discovery.

    Connectivity issue from within the Instances.

  Blog about this issue:
    Path MTU discovery and GRE.
    http://techbackground.blogspot.com/2013/06/path-mtu-discovery-and-gre.html

  Tunnel Path MTU Discovery default value was set to 'disabled' in OVS 1.9.0.
  Both inheritance of the Don't Fragment bit in IP tunnels (df_inherit) and path
  MTU discovery are no longer supported in OVS 1.10.0. So Linux distributions
  that ship with OVS >= 1.9.0 for Havana have no such issue.
