Hi Israel,

on the 6509 the MTU capabilities depend on the linecard.

Can you tell us which linecards you use?
The output of a "show module" should give us sufficient information for
further investigation.


Cheers,
Christian

Hi all,

I am trying to implement Jumbo Frames for Backup / Data Domain purposes at
the Data Center.

The configuration is straight forward on the Nexus 5548 based on my
different research but my CORE is a 6509 running VSS.

Please if anyone has implemented Jumbo Frames in such an environment, would
like to hear from you and how it has been implemented without error. I dont
have a lab environment to simulate this first hence, looking for anyone
with previous hands on...

Here is the network setup:

6500A   ----   6500B
  |                    |
  |                    |
Nexus 5kA        Nexus 5KB - vPC
 |                     |
 |                     |
Many Nexus 2Ks and the Servers are hanging off here..

The Data Domain hangs off the nexus 5548.

The question is, how to enable Jumbo Frames on the 6500s - should it be on
the interfaces participating in Port-Channel connecting to Nexus 5Ks?

Would greatly appreciate your feedback.

thank you,
