Procurve 2910al with Jumbo Frames & Flow Control

[Tom Riley1]

I have a customer who needs to run both Jumbo Frames and flow control. Hp technical support says this isn't possible with this switch. I'm fairly certain this was addressed with a firmware upgrade some time ago. Does anyone know for sure? I hate to disagree with tech support, but if it's true I have to take back the switches. Thanks

This was for the 2900 series

it indicates that both flow control and jumbo frames can be supported simultaneously.

Page 16, second bullet: "The switch allows flow control and jumbo frame capability to co-exist on a port."
