Hi,
How do i generate a jumbo frame in linux? I am using raw socket. I
need to send a frame of size 2500 bytes. I am using a Gigabit
interface card and changed the mtu and txqueuelen parameters to size
greater than 2500. But still I get the "Message too long" error
message from the sendto() call.

What should I do to make this work? Please help.

Thank you.
