Just to clarify, when folks talk about 9k MTUs, they gnerally mean 8940 bytes. That is, twice the MTU for FDDI and DS3. It seems to me that if the MTU is going to be increased at some point that working in multiples is the right way to go about it.
8940 9000 9216 10420, sigh what I wouldn't give for a copy of by Rich Seifert's Gigabit Ethernet book in front of me right now. Will someone find some IEEE material that discusses some of this and try to find what is closest to the real number we should be aiming for. I'm "thinking" its 9000...
