Jumbo Frames (MTU 9000)

[aladin]

Which Procurve switch does support MTU size 9000.
Does 2824 support?

Thanks

Oleg,

There is a new firmware planned (1st week of November) which supports jumbo frames on the 2800 series. Beside jumbo frames there will be a lot of new features available in this free firmware upgrade.

Oleg,

Only the 9300 series support Jumboframes for now.

I'm looking forward to the support for Jumbo Frames on the 2800 series but does anyone know whether there is a plan to introduce Jumbo Frame support to the 4100GL or 5300XL series of switches?

Chris,

No chance. The chipset cannot handle it.

If you want 14K jumbo's then you will need to buy a 9300 series.
