Configuring Cut-Through Layer 2 Forwarding - HP 6125XLG Configuration Manual

Configuring cut-through Layer 2 forwarding

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.
To configure cut-through forwarding:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable cut-through
forwarding.
NOTE:
A frame is forwarded before its CRC field is received, and thus CRC-error frames are forwarded rather
than being dropped.
Command
system-view
cut-through enable
268
Remarks
N/A
By default, cut-through forwarding is disabled.
