摘要：IPv6 is the successor of IPv4, the current Internet Protocol that runs out its address. It offers
some improvements including simpler header format and extension header resulting in faster transmission
of IP packets. However, IPv6 is a network layer protocol that requires lower layer services. IP packets from
the network layer pass to data link layer to be encapsulated by layer 2 headers and trailer to become
frames. Ethernet is the most widely used data link layer protocol in the current network devices. The
technology is always improved to support high speed transmission. However, from standard Ethernet until
ten gigabit Ethernet, the size of MTU remains unchanged at 1500 Bytes. This prevents the network from
gaining an optimum performance on transmitting IP packets and operating systems cannot take full
advantage of the high-speed performance of Gigabit Ethernet. This research aims to implement the
transmission of IPv6 packets using jumbo frame on a test-bed environment. The implementation can be
used to justify the impact of jumbo frame on the network as well as operating systems performance. The
results prove that the OS used on implementation of jumbo frame affects on the network performance. The
highest percentage of increasing throughput is 33.6% when both sender and receiver are running
Windows. The decreasing delay by 54.36% was happened when using Linux in sender and Windows in
receiver.
