Figure 3: General Switch Information
Configuring Support for Jumbo Frames
Use the System > Capability page to configure support for layer 2 jumbo frames.
The switch provides more efficient throughput for large sequential data transfers
by supporting jumbo frames up to 10240 bytes for Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit
Ethernet ports or trunks. 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.
Usage Guidelines
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 size. And for half-duplex connections,
all devices in the collision domain would need to support jumbo frames.
Parameters
The following parameters are displayed:
◆
