Release Information

Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 12.3 for the QFX Series.

Description

Configure the maximum receive unit (MRU) of the interface in bytes (incoming packet sizes must be less than or equal to the MRU, or the packets are dropped). The system uses the MRU and the cable length to calculate the amount of buffer headroom reserved to support priority-based flow control (PFC). The lower the MRU and the shorter the cable length, the less headroom buffer space is required for PFC.

Note: You can also set a maximum transmission unit (MTU) value (the largest packet size the interface sends) for interfaces by including the mtu statement at the [edit interfaces interface-name] hierarchy level.

Default

For priority 3 traffic, the default MRU value is 2500 bytes.

For priority 4 traffic, the default MRU value is 9612 bytes.

Options

mru-value—Value of the maximum packet receive unit size in bytes (generally from 1500 to 9216 bytes, but there is no configuration restriction).

Required Privilege Level

interfaces—To view this statement in the configuration.
interface-control—To add this statement to the configuration.
