Usage guidelines
A cut-through forwarding-enabled device forwards a frame after it receives the first 64 bytes of the frame.
This feature reduces the transmission time of a frame within the device and enhances forwarding
performance.
A device still checks the CRC field of a frame after being enabled with cut-through forwarding, and thus
it does not forward CRC-error frames.
Examples
# Enable cut-through forwarding on the device.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] cut-through enable
