Model: TL-SX3008F  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.20.3

I have recently procurred  SX3008F for my home lab and configured VLAN(s) on the same . I am using both L2 and L3 capabilites of the switch.

 

I am attempting to configure Jumbo Frames for a VLAN10 that I have created but it looks like the jumbo frames configuration is not getting applied or I am doing something.


From the switch interface I have configured Jumbo value to 9216 in the L2 Features section.

 

Please let me know if I am missing anything.

 

Thanks.

The specs do list that the switch supports jumbo frames but its only available for L2 and for L3 the MTU shows as 1500 with no options to change

I found one old community post https://community.tp-link.com/en/business/forum/topic/622112 which shows L3 does not support jumbo frames. Is there any update on this feature request

In this case, the specs list the supported jumbo frames.

If you hope the jumbo frame to work in the string of your network, your other devices have to support 9K before it is even effective.
