NETGEAR ReadyNAS User Guide

If you wish to use the ReadyNAS in a VLAN environment, select the Enable VLAN support check box, and enter a numeric VLAN tag. You need to reboot the ReadyNAS for the VLAN function to take effect.

Warning: Do not enable VLAN support unless you are sure that your clients also support VLAN. Otherwise, you can lose network access to the ReadyNAS, and you might need to reinstall the firmware to disable the VLAN setting.

In the Performance Setting area, the Enable jumbo frames option allows you to optimize the ReadyNAS for large data transfers such as multiple streams of video playback. Select this option if your NIC and your gigabit switch support jumbo frames.

Note: The ReadyNAS supports a 7936 byte frame size, so for optimal performance, a switch capable of this frame size or larger should also be used.
