Hi,

On the Nexus 5000, can you please advise

1.  how to check the system mtu

Hello

1)MTU on the Nexus 5000 is configured per class of service for the entire switch. Since configuration is QoS based, the best command to use is "show queuing interface ethernet x/y" where x/y is any ethernet interfacace on teh switch

2)No it is not possible to configure MTU per interface on Nexus 5000

3)Configuration guide has some examples which should help you
