Howdy, ATM MTU = 4470 Cat 2950 MTU = 1500 Obviously the latter isn't going to allow for MPLS label stacking without running into the same issues as described in this URL in relation to GRE overheads. Why Can't I Browse the Internet when Using a GRE Tunnel? http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk827/tk369/technologies_tech_note09186a0080 093f1f.shtml Catalyst 2950/2955 Series http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps700/products_configuration _example09186a008010edab.shtml#c5 You can classify the Catalyst 2950/2955 Series switches into two major groups, where one supports baby giants (up to 1530 bytes), but the other does not. However, this refers to traffic that flows through the switch. Packets destined to the management (VLAN) interface can support only 1500 bytes. These models of 2950 switches support only 1500 bytes: WS-C2950-12 WS-C2950-24 WS-C2950-48 WS-C2950C-24 WS-C2950T-24 These models of 2950/2955 switches support up to 1530 bytes: WS-C2950G-12-EI WS-C2950G-24-EI WS-C2950G-24-EI-DC WS-C2950G-48 WS-C2950G-48-EI All models of 2950 LRE Series switches All models of 2955 Series switches --matt _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
