Omar,

The numbers that you mentioned for the 2950 and 3550 hasnt changed with the newer codes.

Please refer the below URL for Jumbo Frames Support on Catalyst Switches:

I hope it helps.

Hi

You can classify the Catalyst 2950 series switches into two major groups, where one supports baby giants (up to 1530 bytes), but the other does not. However, this refers to traffic that flows through the switch. Packets destined to the management (VLAN) interface can support only 1500 bytes.

Please check this link for more information and configuring
