MTU Size
The maximum transmission unit (MTU) specifies the maximum packet size for transfer on
the network. The default value is 1500, which is the largest value allowed by Ethernet at
the network layer. It’s best if all nodes in your network use the same value, so only change
this value if you know other nodes use a different value.
