Hello 

I have 2 freebsd servers connected by dedicated wire via em interfaces.
systems = 6.1-PRERELEASE #0: Tue Mar 14 11:58:23 MSK 2006

1st)
man em says
MTU size for Jumbo Frames is 16114 and i'm sure i've setup this on freebsd-5 and probably ealier 6.0
But now 
 ifconfig em1 mtu 16114
ifconfig: ioctl (set mtu): Invalid argument
16110 - max possible

2nd) 
Seems ok with mss
