Hello, Thanks for the help. As I'm using DPDK-18.11.1, I did not find the definition of "RTE_ETHER_MAX_LEN" in lib/librte_net/rte_ether.h file. So I set "ETHER_MAX_LEN" value to 9600. Apart from that I took rest of the changes and with these I'm able to send jumbo frame. Took tcpdump on the receiving end. Suddenly I got stuck at ARP. I could not send packets anymore. I've attached success & failure scenario. Regards, N.
