Hi!We have a problem with a switch connected to an IBM Chassis. The links to the chassis seem to flap from time to time and I find this in the logs:Transmit GigabitEthernet1/0/15 Receive 641365586 Too large framesWhy are there so many too ...
..ok, so in other words it drops frames that are bigger than the MTU, UNLESS it's a trunk port where it does it's best to forward such packets.How can I tell that packets have been dropped due to their size > MTU ?
Aha!I thought that these counters showed packets that were dropped.What happens when a switch receives a packet that is > 1500 bytes? Does it drop it, or does it split it into smaller <= 1500 packets andthen forward them?[Edit: Typo: Changed "splice"...
