Maximum frame size varies from implementation to implementation: http://pages.uoregon.edu/joe/jumbo-clean-gear.html It's also worth noting that that due to offloading features in modern NICs, there's often very little benefit to large frames. Since you *really* need all of the devices on any network segment to use the same MTU, the best option might be to eliminate jumbo frames (and test the impact of doing so in terms of throughput and CPU utilization).
