Environment

  • Onomondo Core Network

  • Device: applicable to all

Question

  • Does Onomondo support jumbo frames on its network?

  • What's the maximum size of MTU on Onomondo network?

  • What MTU should I set?

Answer

  • No, "jumbo frames" are not supported.

  • The maximum MTU size is 1360.

Cause

Jumbo frames only really make sense if you are on a LAN. As soon as you go to the internet (or through a VPN routed over the internet) you need to fragment the frames, and at that point it is more reliable to just use smaller frames, as you can't resend a partial frame if a fragment is lost in transit.
