NimbostratusJumbo Frames
Hello:
We have a little question. We have a F5 Load Balancer 8900 LTM with version 10.2.1. If we want support Jumbo Frames ( set up MTU to 9000), the only solution is upgrade the software to 10.2.4 or higher ?
Thanks

i thought 8900 platform does not support mtu 9000, does it?

Support for jumbo frames on an 8900 was introduced with 10.2.4, but that will only allow for 1800 MTU on this platform. The newer hardware platforms (2000, 4000, 5000, 7000, 10000, and the larger Viprion boxes) all support jumbo frames of up to 9000 MTU natively.
