We know span destination reflector port is 3550 only
and should be considered "caveats".
I am looking at 6500 switch's document , it doesn't
say any thing about increasing mtu by 4 bytes for
dot1q tunneling.
6500 switch's document generalizes the issue as
"jumbo frame support".
Every switch's software should only send packets at
1500 maximum but allow receiving a lot more bytes
as a measure of tolerance right ? When we do some
protocol, we don't assume we know what other unknown
protocols are doing to our packets right ? We don't
know what we don't know right ?
The increasing 4 byte thing will disappear soon
just like as soon as 3550 is gone, span reflector
port is gone right ?
