Cannot enable Jumboframe in Dell MD3200i and PowerConnect 2824
Can any one advise why Jumboframe cannot work properly, even though I have already enabled in the following devices?
1) NIC card: Enable Jumbo Packet with value 9014 Bytes
2) Dell Powerconnect 2824: Enable Jumbo frames
3) Dell MD3200i: Enable jumbo frames with MTU size 9000 Bytes/frame
The method I used for testing the jumbo frames is "ping x.x.x.x -l 9000 -f" and the OS is Windows Server 2012 R2
Thanks in advance
Jimmy

Hello Jimmy,
The issue that you are having is that the PowerConnect 2824 is not an iSCSI based switch. What you will need to look into is a switch that can handle iSCSI like our Powerconnect 62xx. The PC2824 is a simple switch & doesn’t have the memory onboard or fast enough processor to handle doing iSCSI. I would change your switch and then try your setup again & see if you are getting the same errors.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.
