Yes, jumbo frames are an all or nothing feature on the 3750.

Hi,
we got one VLAN on a Cat3750 on that we want enable jumbo frame support. I
found this information on the Cisco website:

###############################################################################################################
Catalyst 3750/3560 Series

Catalyst 3750/3560 Series switches support an MTU of 1998 bytes for all
10/100 interfaces. All Gigabit Ethernet interfaces support jumbo frames up
to 9000 bytes. The default MTU and jumbo frame size is 1500 bytes. You
cannot change the MTU on an individual interface. You must set the MTU
globally. Reset the switch afterwards for the MTU change to take effect.
Configure

Use the system mtu command to change the MTU for all 10/100 interfaces. This
command only effects 10/100 interfaces.

   3750(config)# system mtu 1546
   3750(config)# exit
   3750# reload

Use the system mtu jumbo command to change the MTU for all Gigabit Ethernet
interfaces. This command only effects Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces.

   3750(config)# system mtu jumbo 9000
   3750(config)# exit
   3750# reload

Note: Gigabit Ethernet ports are not affected by the system mtu command;
10/100 ports are not affected by the system mtu jumbo command. If you do not
configure the system mtu jumbo command, the setting of the system mtu
command applies to all Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.

We got one VLAN which we will be using as out NFS/SAN VLAN. For my
understanding, we could only enable jumbo frame support global, not for an
specific interface. Am I right? Thanks for your help.

Cheers
