This section describes commands used to configure the Ethernet frame size

on the switch.

Enables support for jumbo frames

This command enables support for layer 2 jumbo frames for Gigabit

Ethernet ports. Use the no form to disable it.

[no] jumbo frame

Global Configuration

This switch provides more efficient throughput for large sequential data

transfers by supporting jumbo frames on Gigabit Ethernet ports or

trunks up to 10240 bytes. Compared to standard Ethernet frames that

run only up to 1.5 KB, using jumbo frames significantly reduces the

per-packet overhead required to process protocol encapsulation fields.

To use jumbo frames, both the source and destination end nodes (such

as a computer or server) must support this feature. Also, when the

connection is operating at full duplex, all switches in the network

between the two end nodes must be able to accept the extended frame
