Neither jumbo frames nor multicast will prevent group demotion when the other side of a crosslink cable goes physically down. Only not having the sync interface in the carp group will.
True. But I think he was just discussing general best practices, not things specific to the issue I raised. Using jumbo frames would reduce the packet overhead if the number of states to be sent in a particular transmission would have exceeded the default MTU. In my scenario, it looks like I don't have enough traffic for that to occur, at least not on a regular basis.
