  the ixgbe NIC only supports one global MTU per physical port.
So when the user sets different MTUs on PF and VF ports in one physical port,
the real MTU for all these PF and VF ports is the largest value set.
This behavior is based on the kernel driver behavior.

So, modify script supports the verification packet sent is greater than PF MTU for ixgbe driver.
