It *isn't* the interface MTU, it's the transport MTU.

/**
* gnutls_dtls_set_mtu:
* @session: is a #gnutls_session_t structure.
- * @mtu: The maximum transfer unit of the interface
+ * @mtu: The maximum transfer unit of the transport
*
- * This function will set the maximum transfer unit of the interface
- * that DTLS packets are expected to leave from.
+ * This function will set the maximum transfer unit of the transport
+ * that DTLS packets are sent over. Note that this should exclude
+ * the IP (or IPv6) and UDP headers. So for DTLS over IPv6 on an
+ * Ethenet device with MTU 1500, the DTLS MTU set with this function
+ * would be 1500 - 40 (IPV6 header) - 8 (UDP header) = 1452.
