Configuring cut-through Layer 2 forwarding
About cut-through Layer 2 forwarding
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 and enhances forwarding performance.
Restrictions and guidelines for cut-through Layer 2 forwarding configuration
With cut-through forwarding, the device forwards CRC-error frames because it starts forwarding frames before their CRC field is received.
For cut-through Layer 2 forwarding configuration to take effect, save the configuration and reboot the device after you configure cut-through Layer 2 forwarding.
Procedure
1. Enter system view.
