Some older boxes don't support it. Like the cat5K, Some lines cards will,
some won't
Some NIC's won't
Fragmentation deley and overhead on WAN links (might not be an issue)
Advantages.
I guess better "goodput". I know NetApp. boxes tend to work better with
jumbo frames or so I am told. I never measured it. Just asked to turn it
on for a customer or two.
