Jumbo frames between OMV and Windows

    Hello again.
    I have a direct connection between OMV and Windows 2003 without a switch.
    What MTU size should I set on OMV to talk with Windows Intel NIC without packet fragmentation?
    On Windows I have on the driver predefined options to set MTU - including 9014.
    When I run on this Windows command netsh int ip show int then I see that MTU size is 9000.
    When I set on OMV MTU for this device to 9000 and I run some test I have fragmentation info.
    On windows I run ping -f -l 9000 10.101.5.100 I get Packet needs to be fragmented but DF set.
    On OMV I run ping -M do -s 8972 10.101.5.1 I get Frag needed and DF set (mtu = 9000).
    What should be set on both ends to work properly without fragmentation?
    Best regards. Pawka

    Hi,

    that is understandable: IPv4 and ICMP header need 28 bytes.
    So it should work with
    ping -f -l 8972 10.101.5.100

    But this should work.


    I would reduce the paketsize until they don't get fragmented anymore and then try to understand the value. ?(
