The packet size for transferring
data
Specify whether or not to transfer larger data packets between the
Ethernet Disk RAID and the computers in your network by selecting
or clearing the
Jumbo Frames
check box. If you clear this option, the
Ethernet Disk RAID will use 1514-byte packets.
If you select this option, you can specify a larger packet size (from 1514
to 9014 bytes).
TeChNICAl NOTe:
Using jumbo frames allows you to transfer data
more quickly. However, you can select this option only if your net-
work, Ethernet switch, and the network interface cards (NICs) on
the computers in your network support the specified packet size. To
determine whether you can use jumbo frames, refer to the documen-
tation for those components.
The FTP settings
If you want to use the Ethernet Disk RAID as an FTP server, select
the
Enable FTP server
check box. If you do not want to use it as an
FTP server, clear this option.
