      Howdy!

               I have several bnx interfaces, bnx0 bnx1 bnx2 bnx3. I want to
    directly connect bnx2 and bnx3 to another machine (ie. no
    switch ), and configure jumbo frames on
    these interfaces only. Is this possible and what do I need to do?

        In bnx.conf I found this line

    ############################################################################
    # mtu : Configures the hardware MTU size.  The valid range for this
    #       parameter is 60 to 9000.  The default value is 1500.
    #
    #mtu=1500,1500,1500,1500,1500,1500,1500,1500,1500,1500,1500,1500,1500,1500,1500,1500;

         Should I put something like

    mtu=1500,9000;

          in bnx.conf and can I control the mtu on the particular interface
    with ifconfig and hostname.bnx files??

             thanx - steve
