Balanand,

Which Supervisor engine does this Cisco 4000 switch have?  Sup II does NOT
support jumbo frames at all.  Sup III does support them after IOS version
12.1(13)EW, but only on certain lines cards and on NON-blocking ports.  This
is an important point.  I would advise you get in touch with your LAN
engineer and work from there.  If the switch does not support the frames
(i.e . Sup II) it will simply drop them.  This could be causing some of the
performance problems.
