Enabling Jumbo Frames on the switch will enable Jumbo Frames on all interfaces. I am not seeing a way on this switch to enable Jumbo Frames on just one specific interface or VLAN. Enabling Jumbo will not create any issue with common computer network traffic. If this switch plugs into another switch, it is a good idea to have Jumbo Frames enabled on the connecting switches interface also. Here is a white paper with some good iSCSI info. www.dell.com/.../Dell_EqualLogic_%20iSCSI_Optimization_for_Dell_Power_onnect_%20Switches.pdf Cheers
Hi, does someone idea, if it´s possible to use Jumbo Frames only to a specific ports? After enable JumboFrames, it will create some issue to common computers network traffic?? I was planning to create a VLAN to connect the storage and R620 (running XenServers).  * we are planning to use that unit to connect a Dell Power Vault MD3200i offering volumes as iSCSI. * according to mannual of our switch (ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_ser_stor_net/esuprt_powerconnect/powerconnect-5524_User%27s%20Guide_en-us.pdf ): "Enabling iSCSI automatically enables Jumbo frames and enables Flow Control on all interfaces."
5524 - Jumbo Frames - to entire unit or only to some ports/vlan
