opensolaris 2009.06: enable jumbo frame on e1000g

Edit /kernl/drv/e1000g.conf
# vi /kernel/drv/e1000g.conf

and change 'MaxFrameSize' to appropriate value.
---
MaxFrameSize=2,2,2,2,2,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0;
# 0 is for normal ethernet frames.
# 1 is for upto 4k size frames.
# 2 is for upto 8k size frames.
# 3 is for upto 16k size frames.
# These are maximum frame limits, not the actual ethernet frame
# size. Your actual ethernet frame size would be determined by
# protocol stack configuration (please refer to ndd command man pages)
# For Jumbo Frame Support (9k ethernet packet)
# use 3 (upto 16k size frames)

The first digit represent e1000g0, second digit represent e1000g1, and so on.
