Viewing Jumbo Frames
Jumbo Frames transports identical amounts of data in fewer frames. Jumbo frames are accepted at 
ingress (incoming traffic) and generated at egress (outgoing traffic). This mechanism ensures less 
overhead, lower processing time, and fewer interruptions. Internal frames may be effected by 
enabling Jumbo frames. 
 
NOTE: The PowerConnect™2708 switch does not support Jumbo Frames.
 
NOTE: 
A change in Jumbo Frames support requires power cycling of the device.
The Jumbo Frames page enables or disables the transmission of jumbo packets. To open the page, 
click 
Jumbo Frames in the tree view.
