Performance of Jumbo Sized Data on Jumbo Frame and Ethernet Frame Using UDP over IPv4/IPv6
Abhijit Das, Shibendu Debbarma · 2013
Though Jumbo frame was introduced with large payload size to mitigate the bottleneck of Ethernet frame in the gigabit network with continuous traffic, yet it is not ratified by any standardization committee. The performance of Jumbo frame has been explored by many researchers using TCP as transmission protocol, so we present experimentation on Jumbo frame and Ethernet frame on IPv4 and IPv6 network using UDP protocol. One-way-delay and jitter are measured for various jumbo size data packets on Windows 8 platform using D-ITG as the simulation tool. Our study reveals that Jumbo frame has low delay and jitter values than Ethernet frame for some packet sizes.
