Layer 2 Features
The following section will aid the user in configuring Layer 2 functions for the Switch. The Switch
includes various functions all discussed in detail in the following section.
Jumbo Frame
This window will enable or disable the Jumbo Frame function on the Switch. The default is Enabled.
When Enabled, jumbo frames (frames larger than the standard Ethernet frame size of 1522 bytes) with a
maximum size of 9216 bytes can be transmitted by the Switch.
To view this window, click L2 Features > Jumbo Frame:
Click on the Apply button to accept the changes.

Understanding IEEE 802.1p Priority
Priority tagging is a function defined by the IEEE 802.1p standard designed to provide a means of
managing traffic on a network where many different types of data may be transmitted simultaneously.
It is intended to alleviate problems associated with the delivery of time critical data over congested
networks. The quality of applications that are dependent on such time critical data, such as video
conferencing, can be severely and adversely affected by even very small delays in transmission.
Network devices that are in compliance with the IEEE 802.1p standard have the ability to recognize the
priority level of data packets. These devices can also assign a priority label or tag to packets. Compliant
devices can also strip priority tags from packets. This priority tag determines the packet's degree of
expeditiousness and determines the queue to which it will be assigned.
