DESCRIPTION

 

Jumbo Frame

Jumbo frames are used to forward non-standard packet sizes on your network. These

 

 

frames can deliver frames of up to 9216 bytes instead of standard Ethernet frames of

 

 

1522 bytes. Fewer packets are required for large data transfer, improving traffic

 

 

throughput on the port.

 

 

Select this option to allow a port to send and receive jumbo frames.

 

 

Note: The peer device must also support non-standard packet traffic.

 

 

 

 

PD

A powered device (PD) is a device such as an access point or a switch, that supports

 

 

PoE (Power over Ethernet) so that it can receive power from another device through a

 

 

10/100Mbps Ethernet port.

 

 

Select the check box to allow a powered device (connected to the port) to receive

 

 

power from the switch.

 

 

 

 

Apply

Click Apply to save your changes.

 

 

 

16.3 Port VLAN
