I want to get new switches for my home network which are all running 10/100 ancient switches. All my equipment already support jumbo frames EXCEPT the switches, so they are the weakest link.
The question that I have is that in some of my NIC settings, there are settings that say 9013 bytes, and in others that say 9000 bytes. If I enable jumbo frames on a NIC that says 9013 bytes but the switch's specs say 9000 bytes, will it still work, or will it drop the packets?
Thanks!
