+ | **Enable Jumbo Frames *** - This option allows you to increase the maximum frame size within the LAN. (Default: Disabed). | ||
+ | |||
+ | The default Jumbo Frames size is 2000 bytes. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If enabled, all ports (WAN + LAN) will have Jumbo Frame capability enabled. | ||
+ | |||
+ | NOTE: The jumbo frames feature is only supported in 1000 Mbit/s mode. | ||
+ | |||
+ | NOTE 2: The gigabit switch needs more memory for this feature. This can/will influence system performance. depending on how many ports simultaneously use jumbo frames) | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Jumbo Frame Size** - If this is disabled, the default frame size is 2000 bytes. If this is enabled, its setting overrides the default frame size setting (Default: off). | ||
+ | |||
+ | Generally,. you should enable Jumbo Frames only if you frequently transfer large files within your LAN. To function, all devices must support Jumbo Frames. Additionally, | ||
+ | |||
+ | You are strongly advised to leave this disabled unless you have specific requirements for it. If you venture into Jumbo Frames, you'll have to deal with fragmentation of Internet traffic, unless the end device supports Path MTU Discovery. Users often find that the limited performance benefits of Jumbo Frames is not worth the time and effort needed to tune and troubleshoot it. | ||
