Title: Jumbo Frame Support
Post by: ourtech on July 17, 2008, 09:16:19 PM

Hello,
My new DNS-321 is running super.  One question.  I know that the 323 now supports jumbo frames.  Is that support in the 321?

Thanks

The DNS-321 does not currently support Jumbo frames.

Can we add this to future firmware?  I hear that some are seeing greater throughput.  And yes, the rest of the devices in the chain (nic and switch) all support jumbo frames.

Thanks.

Jumbo frames will be added in the next firmware release for the DNS-321

Thanks.  But now I am confused.  According to this article, jumbo frame support is already in the 321 and is handled automatically.  They tested throughput with and without jumbo frames.  http://www.smallnetbuilder.com/content/view/30521/75/1/3/

Is there a timeframe on that firmware release?

I am very sorry but I do not have details for firmware releases.

Will the DNS-321 get BitTorrent support also?
