Usage guidelines

A cut-through forwarding-enabled device forwards a frame after it receives the first 64 bytes of the frame. This feature reduces the transmission time of a frame within the device and enhances forwarding performance.

A frame is forwarded before its CRC field is received, and thus CRC-error frames are forwarded instead of being dropped.

This command does not take effect on the following ports:

·     The two SFP+ ports on the front panel of an S6820-32H switch.

·     The two SFP ports on the back panel of an S6820-56HF or S6820-4C switch.

Examples

# Enable cut-through forwarding on the device.
