Test Jumbo Frames / MTU 9000

Linux:

ping -M do -s 8972 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

OSX/BSD:

ping -D -s 8184 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Windows:

ping -f -l 9000 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Example results on Linux

If you’ve forgotten to enable jumbo frames/9k MTU on your client device you’re sending the ping from:

PING xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx): 8184 data bytes
ping: sendto: Message too long

If you have enabled jumbo frames on your client but not the destination (or a switch in between):

PING xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx): 8184 data bytes
Request timeout for icmp_seq 0

If you’ve done everything righ:

PING xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx): 8184 data bytes
8192 bytes from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx: icmp_seq=0 ttl=128 time=0.714 ms

Mount disk image partition

View partition table of disk.img:

fdisk -lu disk.img
Disk disk.img: 1.3 GiB, 1361051648 bytes, 2658304 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disklabel type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x6f92008e

Device    Boot  Start     End Sectors  Size Id Type
disk.img1        8192  131071  122880   60M  c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
disk.img2      131072 2658303 2527232  1.2G 83 Linux

Mount partition by using start multiplied by sector size as offset

mount -o loop,offset=$((131072 * 512)) disk.img /mnt
