Sensors respond differently to jumbo frames based on which ports are receiving them. The following Sensor models support jumbo frame parsing of up to 9,216 bytes (9 KB) of IP payload:
IPS-VM600, IPS-VM5000, IPS-VM5000-SSL, and IPS-VM600-SSL on ESXi and KVM.
IPS-VM600-VSS-SSL on AWS, Azure and GCP.
NS9600, NS9500, NS9300, NS9200, NS9100, NS7600, NS7500, NS7350, NS7250, NS7150, NS7300, NS7200, NS7100, NS5200, NS5100, and NS3600.
Note
1 Gigabit Sensor ports will inline forward jumbo frames that are greater than 9KB (9216 bytes) of IP payload and up to 9724 bytes. Frames with IP payload greater than 9724 bytes will be dropped on a 1 Gigabit port. However, 10 Gigabit Sensor ports will inline forward jumbo frames greater than 9KB (9216 bytes)of IP payload and up to 16KB (16384 bytes). Frames with IP payload greater than 16KB will be dropped on a 10 Gigabit port.
Jumbo frame parsing is not supported on NS3500, NS3200, NS3100.
