Setting jumbo frames on solaris 10 with ixgbe
Hi,I'm trying to configure jumbo frames for two ixgbe interfaces on our new SPARC T5-2 server (running Solaris 10u11). The interfaces are internal 10GBaseT.
I've followed http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E25543_01/html/E25544/z40001c91008691.html but ifconfig still reports a mtu of 1500.
grep shows this:
# grep ixgbe /etc/path_to_inst
"/pci@300/pci@1/pci@0/pci@1/network@0" 0 "ixgbe"
"/pci@300/pci@1/pci@0/pci@1/network@0,1" 1 "ixgbe"
"/pci@3c0/pci@1/pci@0/pci@1/network@0" 2 "ixgbe"
"/pci@3c0/pci@1/pci@0/pci@1/network@0,1" 3 "ixgbe"
So I added those lines in /kernel/drv/ixgbe.conf :
name = "network"
parent = "/pci@3c0/pci@1/pci@0/pci@1"
unit-address = "2"
