I did check on Cisco site and the linecards supports Jumbo Frames.

I also discovered that Jumbo frames can be configured at the interface
level on this platform.

If I need to configure this on an interface facing a Nexus 5548, will i be
breaking any packet flow that are not jumbo?

Any feedback on previous exposure at this level would be greatly
appreciated.

Thank you,
I
