| + | The Ethernet cards we are testing with are: | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | eth1: Tigon3 [partno(BCM95704A7) rev 2003 PHY(5704)] (PCI:66MHz:64-bit) 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet 00:e0:81:2c:5e:bd | ||

| + | eth1: dma_rwctrl[763f0000] dma_mask[64-bit] | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Also, we will experiment with the MTU (using Jumbo frames of size 9000): | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | ifconfig eth1 mtu 9000 | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | And to test: | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | ping -M do -s 8992 192.168.0.3 | ||
