Keep in mind that not all fastE or gigE switches support jumbo frames. |

Additionally not all cards support jumbo frames either though you can |

certainly set them to an MTU of 9000 and watch things break. |

To the original poster, I'd do some googling and verify that all the |
| 18 |
network cards and switches involved can do jumbo frames and that it is |
| 19 |
enabled on each device as needed. |
