Cisco Switching/Routing :: Jumbo 9000 Packets Configured But Not Working?
Feb 23, 2012
I have a switch that I have configured for jumbo packets, but they don't seem to be functioning. I have set system mtu jumbo 9000. The hosts are connected via 2x EtherChannel links. The hosts are jumbo frame enabled, and can ping their own local address using jumbo packets & do-not-fragment flags on the pings. They cannot, however, ping each other or the switch that way - it always says that the packet requires fragmentation. I know the attached machines (they're all VMs) and virtual switches support jumbos because I can ping within the virtual interfaces of the VMs. It's just traffic that goes over the switch that fragments.The switch is a WS-2960G-48TC. Here are the various outputs, with a section of config at the end.

System MTU size is 1500 bytes
System Jumbo MTU size is 9000 bytes
System Alternate MTU size is 1500 bytes
Routing MTU size is 1500 bytes

We have a number of sites which have high-speed L2 links which terminate on our L3 switches at each site. The ports are between the sites are placed in routed mode.
I would like to use Jumbo frame between two of the network which will communicate across sites and 1500 mtu on the rest, is this something which is possible?
From my understanding is the mtu is set on the interface therefore if I set the mtu on the L2 link ports on both sites to 9000 then would this cause a problem for the 1500?

on some of our ports on Nexu 5000 and on the connected FEX we can see a lot of Jumbo Packets though there is not enableed any JumboFrame on the Switch, all Interface and system MTU is set to 1500.

I currently have 4 3560 switches connected in a Mesh topology. These are all set to use Jumbo Frames and so are all the Servers that are connected to these.I now need to connect a 2950 switch to 2 of the 3560's which will have only desktop computers connected to it but i do not want to configure Jumbo Frames on this and any of the desktops.

I am trying to find a solution using modular QOS when there is congestion in circuit we drop packets with WRED which are marked with a DSCP value of say AF21. I can drop those traffic completely in case of congestion. I was thinking to allocate 100% bandiwth to rest of the traffic.

I recently installed DHCP snooping on a 3750v2 switch (Version 12.2(55)SE4) and configured the uplink(Po2) as a trusted port. The problem is that clients cannot receive an IP address. When I disable DHCP snooping it is working properly. DHCP snooping is configured correctly but I don't have an idea how to resolve it. [code]I tested the solution on the same kind of hardware switch and firmware and it worked out fine. What is causing the clients not to receive an IP address from the DHCP server?

I have a RV042 using (for now), just the single WAN interface. I am trying to forward all packets to port 9000 from the WAN to a single IP address on the network. I've set up both forwarding rules under Setup -> Forwarding and under the Firewall -> Access Rules.I cannot connect to my device from the outside world, however. Is there something I'm missing?

I've had a read through the docs for the 3750 series switches, but nothing that definately says that jumbo frame routing will work on a SVI.One part specifically I'd like clarification on is:The default maximum transmission unit (MTU) size for frames received and sent on all interfaces on the switch or switch stack is 1500 bytes. You can change the MTU size to support switched jumbo frames on all Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces and to support routed frames on all routed ports. It says supported routed frames on all routed ports, but this in the past has meant physical ports, and not Virtual ones.

I have a pair of N7K's in vPC topology with some FEXs attached. I am looking into enabling Jumbo frame on the N7K as well as the FEX. I understand Jumbo frame is enabled globally by default.
My question is I have some interfaces in a port-channel that I need jumbo frame enabled. Do I enable it at the port-channel interface or at the physical interface ? and is the change disruptive to the network ? I am running NX-OS 6.0.2.

I've to enable it on 3750 and nexus 7K switches. what are the steps involved? can we enable jumbo frame per port instead of enabling globally? i.e. we will only have few ports that will be using jumbo frames, rest of the ports will be using default 1500 MTU size.

We have a requirement to send span traffic to a destination port for monitoring purposes on two 5000s with some 2000 fex boxes attached.
Some of the servers are making use of frames larger than 1500. we have not changed any mtu configuration on the 5000 since installation, and I can see the policy maps is still on 1500.
My first assumption would be that frames larger than 1500 will not be dropped, but it seemingly not (see below). is there a reason why the switch would forward jumbo frames? Also, is there a limitation on MTU for span traffic? There is a MTU command under the span session, but the maximum is 1518. From what I can read the frame will be truncated if it exceeds this. Does that mean the fragments will be dropped?

I believe i've enable jumbo frames on our Nexus 7010, one in each data-centre.
system jumbomtu 9216. Also on the interfaces mtu 9216. And can see MTU 9216 bytes, BW 20000000 Kbit, DLY 10 usec on the port-channel between them. Though when i ping between vlans at each site with large packets i get 30% drops and if i set the DF bit in IP header to yes - 100% loss.
8798 bytes from 10.200.12.2: icmp_seq=19 ttl=254 time=8.024 ms --- 10.200.12.2 ping statistics ---20 packets transmitted, 14 packets received, 30.00% packet loss

I understand that jumbo frames need to be enabled end-to-end. I have two ESX hosts connected at each site. I want to enable jumbo frames for those ports, but what if not all host on the ESX are using jumbo frames, will I have drops and connection failures? So if i have two sites, each with a 6509 connected via a trunk and need to enable jumbo frames for a vlan between the sites how do I accomplish this?If I enable jumbo frames on the trunk link how does that impact other traffic between the sites?

I have a Cisco Nexus 3064 that I am using as part of a flat network for the Lab. I have 30 Virtualization Servers(MS HyperV and VMware vSphere) connected to this switch and I want to enable jumbo frames. The Virtualization Servers are able to ping the local VM's using 8K bytes. However I am unable to ping from server to server using 8K bytes. I have configuration (in abbreviation). All the servers are in the same network which I configured as L2 ports with the "switchport" command. However, the interface "MTU" command is unavailable in L2 mode. I am only able to get the interface "MTU" command only in L3 mode with the "no switchport" command on the interface.
# int eth1/2-45
# no switchport
# mtu 9216
# no shut
I can ping the servers with less than 1500 bytes, but anything larger fails.

According to this Cisco URL jumbo frames should be put into play by changing default ethernet system class.
Recommended configuration:
!--- You can enable the Jumbo MTU
!--- for the whole switch by setting the MTU
!--- to its maximum size (9216 bytes) in

I have a Cisco Catalyst 3100 blade in a Dell server chassis that is trunked to a 6509.
When doing a protocol capture, I see large frames being sent from one of the servers in the chassis.
Example:
TCP:[Continuation to #1701] [Bad CheckSum]Flags=...AP..., SrcPort=HTTP(80), DstPort=2667, PayloadLen=2831, Seq=1489611217 - 1489614048, Ack=1719592331, Win=65535
I see lengths up to 6900+ bites coming from the server.
The switch has the global MTU set to 1500
system mtu routing 1500
and I can't seem to set this at the interface level. The server is configured to send 1500 length frames. Why am I seeing these jumbos? (the server is Windows 2003)

I have a pair of Catalyst 3560 GB switches that are trunked with two of the standard ports, and that have trunk ports connecting to a failover pair of PIX 515e's. We're considering adding a pair of cluster database nodes and an iSCSI SAN, both of which would need a dedicated interconnect VLAN that I'd like to employ Jumbo frames on. I don't necessarily need the VLANs to traverse the firewall trunks since they're private interconnects, but I need each host to traverse the switch trunks.
Since it seems I can only enable Jumbo frames on the entire switch (current standard frame size is 1500 and jumbo is also 1500), when I enable it what kind of possible negative impact could this have on my trunked ports as well as my host connections? I've read mixed reviews of users with iSCSI SAN devices seeing terrible performance when enabling jumbo frames so I'm apprehensive about enabling them on an existing network.

The server team has asked me to implement jumbo frames on a single VLAN, the one they use for v motion. We have two pairs of 5548s, each pair running VPC for most connections. I am aware of many postings that describe how to enable jumbo frames globally, like this:
policy-map type network-qos jumbo
class type network-qos class-default
[code].....
I am not clear how I can extend this principle to one VLAN only.
Also, I am aware of a posting [URL], that shows some pitfalls of implementing jumbo frames in a VPC configuration. Pretty well all my connections are VPC, including all the FEXes, which are all dual-homed. In many cases, the VPC extends through to the servers so that the servers run port.channels across two FEXes. I am unclear whether the pitfalls are still valid, or whether I have to wait until my next maintenance slot (6 months away) to implement jumbo frames. Can jumbo frames be implement safely on the fly? How does enabling jumbo frames fit in with "conf sync" mode?

I am trying to determin if Jumbo frames are enabled on out Nexus 7000, and I am getting mixed info back from the swtich.I looks like the system jumbo MTU size is 9216 by default, but the interfaces all say the MTU of the interface is 1500 bytes. According to this article, the interface MTU should read 9216 is the jumbo frames are enabled globally. Is this correct. Is there a way to verify if Jumbo frame support is turned on? [code]

We are currently using two Nexus 5548UP's as our Datacenter Network Core. I have a pretty simple objective: I would like to enable Jumbo Frames on a single VLAN only(VLAN 65). This VLAN is used strictly for backups. I do not want to enable Jumbo Frames on the other VLANs(VLANs 1-10). Im not sure what the best way to do this is.....or if it is even possible but I am hoping to get some configuration examples.

I want to enable jumbo frame con a Catalyst 4500, specifically in the WS-X4648-RJ45-E card. (running this IOS version Version 12.2(53)SG1).
For what I checked, this are the only needed commands:
vlan xxx
mtu 9000
interface port 4
mtu 9000
exit
I want to be sure that these are the only needed comands and that they won t generate any disruption.

I would like to configure Ethernet jumbo frame setting in a C6509E switch with WS-X6548-GE-TX and WS-X6516A-GBIC port modules, and IOS 12.2(33)SXJ1. whether any of these modules can support jumbo ethernet frames up to 9000 per port bases.Also, if none of these modules support port-based jumbo frame MTU then would the switch allow jumbo frames on Ethernet trunks from an access switch (say a C3560)?

I attempted to enable jumbo frames on a Nexus 5010 (NX-OS version 4.2(1)N1(1)). I created the policy map below and lost access to the switch.
policy-map type network-qos jumbo
class type network-qos class-default
mtu 9216
After recovery I see from the logs that all vlans and interface were suspended. I've attempted to look for reasons for a compatibility issue but I am unable to find what is checked and what could have been incompatible. The other troubling thing is the adjacent switch suspended its interfaces too but no change was done there. What I need to look out for so that this does not happen again?

We have a working PBR route map on a 6509 switch and a 3750 switch, each in different locations.On both devices, the route-map is configured to match on one of multiple ACLs, then set the next hop to a directly-connected IP address, like so: [code]
When copying in the ACL contents for "ACL20", they were accidentally copied in to the ACL1 list, and ACL20 was never created. Shortly after this was done, the next hop router went unreachable in both locations. Pings failed and the 6509 and 3750 each lost the EIGRP adjacency to the 1.1.1.5 router. After troubleshooting, I removed "match ip address ACL20" and connectivity returned.
My question is...if a PBR route-map tries to match on a non-existent ACL, what happens? Does it mark the next hop unreachable (even though it's directly connected) or does it match for ALL traffic and send *everything* there (thus, making it appear unreachable, as if a broadcast storm was happening)?

In the following scenario, how will the 2950/2960/2960S series behave:
- VTP server/domain configured on a 6509
- A access switch (2960) currently configured in transparent mode with all VLAN it requires
Will the switch drop any traffick if we change it from transparent to client mode if the VTP server has the exact same vlans defined as the access switch had when it was in transparent mode?

I have an 2960S all configured, with vlans, ports configurations and others.Now, I bought other 2960S and two stack modules to create a stack with these 2 switches.We call:
-Switch1 (I have configured and in production)
-Switch2 (New switch, no configured)
Can I connect these two switches in stack without lost the configuration of my Switch1 and no turn-off this switch? Does not stop the users access?

I'm working on my CCNA. I purchased an old router 2610 with two ethernet ports. I configured the IP addresses on the interfaces and added the default gateway. I configured NAT to go out my ATT DSL router to the internet. With the 2610, I'm able to ping the back end or internal DSL router, but I can't ping the front end, external router, or out to any internet site such as google.
