Sure, it can be done. The Xilinx 10/100 Ethernet drivers have jumbo frame support in MontaVista/WindRiver Linux. As long as both ends are talking jumbo frames, works just fine.

The application is to support certain encapsulation protocols without imposing smaller than 1500 byte MTU restrictions on the innermost protocol. I have been tasked to investigate this for a system based on PPC405EP. Can it be done using the IBM EMAC, Linux drivers, etc?
