Multiple MTU on a Single Interface Group

Hi,

 

I'm handling this project of clustered Data ONTAP that I only have 2 physical interface for both iSCSI and CIFS data LIFs.

Considering the availability standpoint, I have made grouped those interface into a single interface group.

 

For iSCSI, the customer wants to use 9000 MTU, and set CIFS with 1500 MTU.

Can this configuration be achieved?

Would you share some more information on how to accomplish the configuration?

 

Thank you.

Applying multiple MTU values on a ifgrp is not possible. It is only possible in Physical port.

You can set up different VLANs and set different MTU for each.

And set the MTU for the port group before VLANs to the highest MTU you might need.
