I haven't been able to find any information in the NetWorker documentation
this subject, so I thought I would ask here.  Does NetWorker automatically
adjust itself to utilize jumbo frames on a gig Ethernet network, or do you
have to tune it somehow to make use out of it?  Also, I've heard it
mentioned a few times on there that you should tune your Ethernet frame size
to your tape frame size to get the best throughput.  Can any one confirm
this or provide any guidelines?

Thanks in advance.
