Another call for PCIe adapters reporting L2MTU

Mon Oct 01, 2012 10:57 pm

Please anyone using X86 and PCI-e bus cards please reports if your card is displaying/reporting L2MTU and what card type it is?

I need a card that reports L2MTU and the new RB44ge doesnt have a full height bracket!

Can you tell me what specific cards? The particular Intel chipset? CT/PT etc of Intel card. (output of the system resources section) are they both PCIe ? how wide?

The Pro/1000 cards I have dont report it, (PCI bus though)

None of our Pro1000's do either. We have PT and ET cards mainly.

Although tbh all our x86 routers are on 5.6 so maybe it does in newer releases?

you know the family? CT/MT/PT/GT? Of the intel card.

EDIT that chip 82573L is a pci-express 1x chip but you say its a PCI NIC?
EDIT again actually more reading says that intel pro 1000 chipset doesnt support jumbo frames? I think maybe your mixed up on your cards?

I have both 82571EB based Intel Pro 1000/PT (EXPI9402PTBLK) and 82576 based Intel Pro 1000/ET (E1G42ETBLK) Dual Server Adapters. They both shows MTU 9014. Onboard Realtek 8168 shows 16383. Unfortunately media sense (link state) doesn't work on ROS on all ethernet ports, always show "R".

Thanks!!

I have an 82574L based pro/1000 (pro/1000 CT PCI-e 1x) I wonder if that would work?

So Far we have 82571, 82573 and 82576 based adapters all reporting L2MTU confirmed.

I believe you but the Intel adapter is probably pci-express, and not PCI. that particular controller is a pci-e chip. On board?

At least both on-board Intel 82574L on Supermicro X7SPE-HF-D525 shows 9014 L2 MTU.

RB44G used Realtek chips, while card you are linking to is called RB44GV and uses VIA chips.
