Disable GRO for a ethernet interface

Use this to disable the GRO (Generic Receive Offload) on a RHEL system:

# /sbin/ethtool -K eth4 gro off

You can also add this to the /etc/rc.local file to persist across restarts.

There are also other options you can set with the ethtool utility.  Please see the man page for ethtool for more information
