Subject: [dpdk-dev] i40e: cannot change mtu to enable jumbo frame
Date: Tue, 09 Feb 2016 17:35:45 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <56BA1561.3060201@6wind.com> (raw)

Hello Helin,

I tried to send jumbo frames to a i40e card. However, I observed that 
all frames are dropped. Moreover, set_mtu function is not implemented on 
i40e PMD.

Done.

=> Frame correctly received on port 0, but never forwarded or xmit on 
port 1.

Does a mtu_set function will be developed soon in order to support jumbo 
frame ?
