3.2.2 Jumbo Frames Support
Jumbo frame support is a feature which allows
Ethernet hardware to send, receive, or transport
Ethernet frames greater then 1518 bytes in size,
which is the standard Ethernet packet size. The
MaxNAS supports jumbo frames of 4000 and
16000 bytes. Jumbo frames can only function if all the network devices can support the same
size jumbo packets. Please verify that all your client devices, hubs, switches, and gateways can
support it before you enable jumbo frames.

3.2.3 Static IP
The LAN configuration for the LAN2 port is similar to the Primary Interface but only allows
modification of the IP address and Netmask. The LAN2 Interface does not support DHCP
address assignment.

3.2.4 DHCP Server
DHCP allows for dynamic IP address assignment on TCP/IP networks. Your MaxNAS can serve
as a DHCP server to a network attached on LAN2. When enabled, it will dynamically assign an
available IP address from the range specified between the “Start IP” entry box and the “End
IP” entry box as well as DNS server addresses.

WARNING: Make sure all your client devices,
hubs, switches, and gateways can support jumbo
frames of the proper size before enabling this
feature. Failure to do so may render the network
port of your MaxNAS inaccessible!
