Hi, I searched the mailman archives for this topic and there were some older messages that indicate that a large MTU should work, but it's not going too well here. I've got three systems (A, B, and C) with kernel 2.6.12.2; there are back-to-back gigabit connections between A & B and between B & C. Testing prior to bridging, the MTU is set to 9000 on every interface and a 100 MB

We have a cluster (212 nodes) that are on a gig-e network useing jumbo frames (mtu 6000) To reload a node we have to plug it into a regular 1500 mtu that is running off a differnt port on the head node to install. Is there a way to tell in the 'append' line of /pxelinux.cfg/default to have the bcm5700 module run wiht jumbo frames. this is our append right now append load_ramdisk=1

Hi everyone, I have looked through the list archives and seen a few posts about jumbo frame support, but there is no definitive answer on whether or not it has been tested or is working for anyone. I tried using an MTU of 9000 in a domU and encountered some very interesting and not-so-great results. My machines used in this test are: * NFS (physical) * dom0 (physical) * domU (virtual)

Maximum frame size varies from implementation to implementation: http://pages.uoregon.edu/joe/jumbo-clean-gear.html It's also worth noting that that due to offloading features in modern NICs, there's often very little benefit

The documentation says the bridge will work as far as all interfaces have the same MTU, but I also read on this and other mailing lists people having problems when using jumbo frames. What is the current status of jumbo frames support in the bridge? It could also be useful to have the same info on the wiki page.

Hello, I have 2 network cards on my 2 of my computers that I am trying to transfer data on. The second network cards are specifically for transferring files between the two so I enabled jumble frames by setting the mtu to 9000. I seem to be able to connect between the two via ssh and other methods using this setting so I thought everything was working right until I tried rsync. I used the

After successfully getting higher MTU to work on my Realtek NICs, I started testing the impact of higher MTU on file transfers using NFS exported ramdisk to ramdisk. The results were unexpected. The higher the MTU on the sending NIC, the lower the file transfer speed. I tested by using time cp to copy a 1GB file (In case compression might affect the results, so I dd the test file from the CentOS

Hi all, I've just upgraded my home network to a Linksys SRW2024 (with lovely vlan trunking support!) and I'm trying to enable jumbo frames. When I try to set the MTU of an rtl8169 based network card (it's a Netgear RA311), it comes up with an error stating: # ifconfig eth1 mtu 9000 SIOCSIFMTU: Invalid argument The only options it will take are 1500 or below. Does anyone know

Hi, Has anyone using CentOS 6 been able to successfully set an mtu larger than 9710 on an interface. I am seeing super jumbo frames with length > 10000. ...

Hi all Is it possible to configure jumbo frames (mtu=9000) on a kvm guest using virtio drivers? Thanks. -- CL Martinez carlopmart {at} gmail {d0t} com

Greetings, I recently installed CentOS 5 on Dell PE 1750 server. I have noticed that the speed and duplex settings are 100 Half Duplex. I tried to change the duplex settings to full, but no success. I got the error message "Cannot get current device settings: Operation not supported". Does anyone else experience this issue?. Below is the error message and some more details about my box.

Hi, I have an XCP 0.5 box running a few DomUs some of the DomU''s data is stored at (clustered lvm volumes on) a Coraid etherdrive box which is connected via an Ethernet cable to a dedicated card of the XCP box, for which in the network config I'' ve specified: MTU=9344: xe network-param-list uuid=.... gives: MTU ( RW): 9344 on the DomUs if I leave the MTU at 1500 (default

Hi, Increasing MTU beyond 1500 in Linux dom0 results in ooopses. I did not find any statement whether 2.0 series support jumbos or not in dom0. Does it?

Hello all, Not sure if I am completely missing something but here goes. I have XCP 1.0 running without any issues. I have the mtu set on both the storage network, the corresponding PIF, and the VIF to 9000 and when displayed in ifconfig it shows that this is indeed true. I have several CentOs 5.6 VMs running in HVM mode (i.e. no xen kernel) which attach to the the storage network through these

On the network theme again. The adapters on the management/storage network all default to an mtu of 1500. Are there plans to be able to indicate when a network supports jumbo frames? Cheers, Justin.

I was trying to do some performance testing between using iSCSI on the host as a diskfile to a guest vs the VM guest using the iSCSI device directly. However, in the process of trying to establish a baseline performance figure, I started increasing the MTU settings on the PCI-express NICs with RTL8168B chips. First bottleneck was discovering the max MTU allowed on these is 7K instead of 9K but

Hi there! I am currently setting up a Xen box on 3 VLans, each VLan interface is in a bridge and currently, dom0 is reachable from on of these and is performing great. My only problem is with domU : it can ping anything but it won''t work for TCP and UDP protocol UNLESS I do a manual tcpdump on my vlan interface. Bridges on dom0: xen-vl97 8000.001372529fbf no

Hi, I am trying to optimize my gigabit network. I have two Intel 1000 MT Gigabit Server Adapters, which support Jumbo Frames -- as well as a Switch that supports Jumbo Frames. However, I am observing some strange behavior in my file transfers from Windows XP to Linux and I am wondering if it has anything to do with the way the Samba variables are set on my Linux box? The "strange

When using OCFS2 in a Oracle RAC set, one would configure OCFS2 to use the private interconnect address ( in cluster.conf). Are there any known issues / reasons not to have the private interconnect set up for jumbo frames when using in conjunction with OCFS2 ?
