Re: [AFMUG] MTU settings on CFIP Lumina FODU - v2.71.07

Careful! While the Lumina does support Jumbo and baby Jumbo frames, it only supports them when the interface is running in 1000BaseT. If your Ethernet or fiber switches to 100BaseT for any reason the MTU limit is around 1514.So if you use Jumbo frames, you have to lock the interface to 1

I'm logged into a Lumina and don't see anything special. I don't think there are any settings, because it's just a managed switch with a stated max frame size. On Mon, Sep 9, 2019 at 9:34 PM Paul McCall wrote: > > Natively, without any settings? > > -Original Message- > From: AF On Beha

Re: [AFMUG] MTU settings on CFIP Lumina FODU - v2.71.07

Nope, bigger. Up to 4094 concurrent VLAN traffic allows building many port-to-port networks paths for specific client services; Jumbo frame size supports up to 9728 bytes, which allows using longer header info (VLAN, MPLS) and transmitting more useful content and less headers, thus gaining on tota

Most of the larger sites with very large gensets, including all of Verizon's and AT&T"s LATA switching sites have generators indoors. It sounds like you better put the exhaust and intake pretty high on the building. I think most with transfer switches, exercise and such are 7kw to 10kw. I would th

Pretty big question. Are you talking about the OLT SFP, or what you plug it into? There is a pretty big range here. I'm most familiar with Calix. Kind of like a switch that deploys, manages, and configures the WAN of each connected ONT. It also manages firmware for the connected devices. Beside

Re: [AFMUG] GPON SFP switch?

GPON uses a TDMA system. The OLT handles the timing and scheduling. That's why you can't use a standard switch. The PON module is dumb and takes orders from the OLT. Jim Bouse Owner - Brazos WiFi 979-985-5912 http://www.brazoswifi.com -Original Message- From: AF On Behalf Of Dev Sen
