Jumbo Mtu
The Jumbo Mtu (Maximum transmission unit) feature allows you to specify
the size of the Ethernet frame that the adapter supports. The network
performance usually improves when the larger frame size is specified:
however, the network must be capable of supporting the oversized
Ethernet frames.
To change the Jumbo Mtu setting, do the following:
1. Access the Advanced Properties.
See “Accessing Advanced Properties” on page 76.
2. Select Jumbo Mtu in the Property box.
The Jumbo Mtu page is displayed as shown in Figure 47.

3. Specify the size of the frame in the Value box.

1,500.
4. Click OK.
