If you selected Static, follow these steps to configure the Grid Network:
a. Enter the static IPv4 address, using CIDR notation.
b. Enter the gateway.
If your network does not have a gateway, re-enter the same static IPv4 address.
c. If you want to use jumbo frames, change the MTU field to a value suitable for jumbo
frames, such as 9000. Otherwise, keep the default value of 1500.
Attention: The MTU value of the network must
match the value configured on the switch port
the node is connected to. Otherwise, network
performance issues or packet loss might occur.
Attention: For the best network performance,
all nodes should be configured with similar
MTU values on their Grid Network interfaces.
The Grid Network MTU mismatch alert is
triggered if there is a significant difference in
MTU settings for the Grid Network on
