How do I set Jumbo Frames on a Gigabit NIC in FreeBSD?

...where you would use em0, bge0, or whatever the actual interface
device is.
See the manpages for the various devices, for example "man em":
Support for Jumbo Frames is provided via the interface MTU
setting.
Selecting an MTU larger than 1500 bytes with the ifconfig(8)
utility con-
figures the adapter to receive and transmit Jumbo Frames. The

MTU size for Jumbo Frames is 16114.
