  2. Jumbo frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jumbo_frame

    802.5 Token Ring can support frames with a 4464-byte MTU, FDDI can transport 4352-byte, ATM 9180-byte and 802.11 can transport 7935-byte MTUs. The IEEE 802.3 Ethernet standard originally mandated support for 1500-byte MTU frames, 1518 byte total frame size (1522 byte with the optional IEEE 802.1Q VLAN/QoS tag). The IEEE 802.3as update ...

  3. Wireless configuration utility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_configuration_utility

    A wireless configuration utility, [1] wireless configuration tool, [1] wireless LAN client, [citation needed] or wireless connection management utility [citation needed] is a class of network management software that manages the activities and features of a wireless network connection.

  4. Maximum transmission unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_transmission_unit

    In computer networking, the maximum transmission unit (MTU) is the size of the largest protocol data unit (PDU) that can be communicated in a single network layer transaction. [1]: 25 The MTU relates to, but is not identical to the maximum frame size that can be transported on the data link layer, e.g., Ethernet frame.

  5. Path MTU Discovery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_MTU_Discovery

    The process is repeated until the MTU is small enough to traverse the entire path without fragmentation. As IPv6 routers do not fragment packets, there is no Don't Fragment option in the IPv6 header. For IPv6, Path MTU Discovery works by initially assuming the path MTU is the same as the MTU on the link layer interface where the traffic originates.

  6. IP fragmentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_fragmentation

    An example of the fragmentation of a protocol data unit in a given layer into smaller fragments. IP fragmentation is an Internet Protocol (IP) process that breaks packets into smaller pieces (fragments), so that the resulting pieces can pass through a link with a smaller maximum transmission unit (MTU) than the original packet size.

  7. Maximum segment size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_segment_size

    The TCP should ask the IP for the Maximum Datagram Data Size (MDDS). This is the MTU minus the IP header length (MDDS = MTU − IPHdrLen). When opening a connection, TCP can send an MSS option with the value equal to: MDDS − TCPHdrLen. In other words, the MSS value to send is: MSS = MTU − TCPHdrLen − IPHdrLen

  9. Wireless router - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_router

    It is possible for a computer running a desktop operating system with appropriate software to act as a wireless router. This is commonly referred to as a SoftAP . In 2003, Linksys was forced to open-source the firmware of its WRT54G router series (the best-selling routers of all time) after people on the Linux kernel mailing list discovered ...
