Hi Brian, Set the below line to /kernel/drv/xge.conf will the work. You might have missed the ";" in your experiments.
set default_mtu=9000; The configuration of xge has not been ported to Brussel yet. Thanks, Lucy Smith, Brian wrote:
Hi all, I'm new to the community so forgive me if I've not landed in the right place for this question. I've been reading up on the xge driver for the Neterion Xframe II 10Gb adapter and how to enable jumbo frames or, to be more accurate, not really reading a whole lot due to a terrible lack of docs (the man page is pretty sparse). IIRC, I was able to accomplish this in Solaris 10 update 3 some time ago but abandoned it due to some other hosts I have including the BCM5721 device which does not support large frames. Anyway, long story short, there is no documentation on how to get the xge driver to support jumbo frames. I created /kernel/drv/xge.conf and added "default_mtu=9000;" as is par for many other drivers, I checked 'dladm' (I'm on Sol10 10/08) to see if any of the new Brussels features made their way in (and no dice... this, despite the fact that all the dladm man pages on docs.sun.com already include those features... http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2240/dladm-1m?a
=v
iew -- what gives?!??!?!), and I even pored over 'ndd' to see if there were any tunables for MTU, SDU, anything. Is there something obvious I'm missing here? Thanks a lot in advance for any help. -Brian _______________________________________________ driver-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/driver-discuss
