Configuration Examples for System MTU

This example shows how to set the maximum packet size for a Gigabit Ethernet port to 7500 bytes:
Switch(config)# system mtu 1900
Switch(config)# system mtu jumbo 7500
Switch(config)# exit
If you enter a value that is outside the allowed range for the specific type of interface, the value is not accepted.
This example shows the response when you try to set Gigabit Ethernet interfaces to an out-of-range number:
Switch(config)# system mtu jumbo 25000
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
This is an example of output from the show system mtu command:
Switch# show system mtu
Global Ethernet MTU is 1500 bytes.
