• Only use Jumbo Frame settings when operating in a Gigabit environment
where all other clients have Jumbo Frame Setting enabled.
• If you are only using the WAN/LAN1 port, we suggest that you disable IP
Sharing Mode. This will result in higher throughput.
• A correct DNS setting is vital to networks services, such as SMTP and NTP.
• To use the Link Aggregation with "802.3ad selected" feature, please make sure
the networking equipment on the other end of Ethernet cable also supports
802.3ad protocol.
Most Fast Ethernet (10/100) Switches/Routers do not support Jumbo Frame and you will not
be able to connect to your N8900/N12000/N16000 after Jumbo Frame is turned on.
