Setting the network MTU does update the Neutron router ports, but not the guest VMs interfaces. I found related https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/2101087 which says "it is needed to detach and re-attach again the interface or reboot the VM" to change the MTU.
A os server stop $id ; sleep N ; os server start $id cycle is enough to update the MTU.
