I have a pair of GA620s that i was trying to enable for
jumbo frames using ipconfig. The man page for ipconfig
says to use as an arguement gbe instead of ether. After
trying it without success and persuing the source,
ipconfig doesn't seem to have that option, and the
GA620 driver doesn't seem to support jumbo frames.
Do any of the drivers for the supported cards support
jumbo packets? If so, how do you enable their use?

No, none of the drivers bother with jumbo frames.

Okay. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing
something.
Thanks.
