I have a q-in-q port in a 6509 with 12.2(18)SXF6 with this configuration
interface GigabitEthernet3/48
description QinQ Vlan 4001
switchport
switchport access vlan 4001
switchport mode dot1q-tunnel
mtu 9216
And when I do an show interface, I have too many giants!!!
See:
show interfaces gigabitEthernet 3/48

Why this? Is someone sending more than 9216 bytes in one packet?
The port is connected to another switch and this switch I tried to setup with MTU 1500 and 9216 and I had the same behavior
