Fabrice,
If you choose to have jumbo frames all over, then when the traffic goes out=
side of your "jumbo frames" enabled network it will be necessary to be frag=
mented back again to the destination MTU. Most of the datacenters will prov=
ide services to the outside world where the MTU is 1500 bytes. In this case=
, you will slow down your performance because your router will be doing the=
fragmentation. So I would always use jumbo frames in the datacenter for ea=
st/west traffic and standard (1500 bytes) for north/south traffic.

> Moacir: Yes! This is another reason to have separate networks for
north/=
south and east/west. In that way I can use the standard MTU on the 10Gb
NIC=
s and jumbo frames on the file/move 40Gb NICs.
Why not Jumbo frame every where ?
