Jumbo frames?

Hello world,

I've got an S4 connect to a provider's Ci$co 7600 via 10G interface. They're requiring we allow jumbo frames. All I can find is the command 'set port jumbo enable tg.x.y'.

Anything else I need to do? When I ping with anything larger than 1472, it fails.

ROUTER(S4A)(su)->ping -s 1472 1.2.3.4
PING 1.2.3.4 (1.2.3.4) 1480 bytes of data.

Hello Jay,

we do nat have experience with S-series, but I'll try to guve my three
cents...

There ist a command "set mtu {enable | disable}":
Enables or disables path MTU discovery protocol.

Did you try "set mtu enable" (should be enabled by default)?

Did you set all ports, which are belonging to this vlan, to jumbo? Or
are some l2 ports belonging to this vlan left with default mtu?

Which mtu do you see on issueing a "show interface" command?

Kind regards
Reinhard

you need to use

set port jumbo enable <port-string>

and show port jumbo


Here's is my listing from an S4:

Yeah. I did that:

------------ ---------------- -------- ------- ------ ------- ------------------

tg.2.8 up up 10.0G full 10g-sr lc

vlan.0.1528 is Operationally up, Administratively up

Jay,

You are fine. You can't change the MTU of a L3 VLAN interface and don't
need to.
Setting the ports is enough.

Kind regards,

Markus
