Which is non-existent on switched networks these days, so I wonder why they don't increase those frames on the internet. Seems like it would really benefit streaming media and downloads -- the big traffic users on the net. My internet is still running @ 1500 MTU's. My local networks could probably benefit with, at least 128K-256K sizes.
That would be a big job, as much equipment doesn't support jumbo frames. First, you'd have to enable jumbo frames on the ISPs network and trunks, then get everyone else to move to it. As long as there are routers between networks, that's not a big problem, but all devices on a network have to be able to support it. I do know many of the research networks support jumbo frames. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
