We only have jumbo frames enabled on router<->router links. The GigE ports facing the aggregation switches runs standard 1500 MTU. --- John Fraizer EnterZone, Inc On Wed, 25 Apr 2001, Paul Lantinga wrote:
well, actually, I haven't had any for, oh, 5 years. Anyhow, what I was getting at was what kind of price you pay performancewise for mtuX <--> mtuY?
