Setting the MTU

Enabling larger frames on a jumbo frame-capable network can improve your network throughput.

Jumbo frames are Ethernet frames that contain more than 1500 bytes of payload (MTU).

Before enabling jumbo frames, ensure that all the devices/hosts located on the network support
the jumbo frame size that you intend to use to communicate with the Gateway. If you experience
network-related problems while using jumbo frames, use a smaller jumbo frame size. Consult your
networking equipment documentation for additional instructions.
