Configure IP
When connected to an Ethernet network, this allows you to automatically detect an IP address or to manually enter an IP address, Netmask address, and Gateway (router) address.
IP Address
When connected to an Ethernet network and Automatic IP Assignment is enabled, IP Address displays the network IP address.
When Manual IP Assignment is enabled, you can select IP Address and manually enter a static IP address.
Netmask
When connected to an Ethernet network and Automatic IP Assignment is enabled, Netmask displays the network Netmask address.
When Manual IP Assignment is enabled, you can select Netmask and manually enter a Netmask address.
Gateway
When connected to an Ethernet network and Automatic IP Assignment is enabled, Gateway displays the network Gateway address (router address).
When Manual IP Assignment is enabled, you can select Gateway and manually enter a Gateway (router) address.
Advanced Settings
The USB-C Advanced Settings menu allows you to change the MTU size.
The Auto setting MTU size is 1500 bytes. You can set the MTU to a size larger than the standard 1500 bytes. This works best on fast Ethernet connections like Gigabit LAN. These large MTUs are known as Jumbo frames (as large as 9000 bytes) and they can increase data transmission efficiency and reduce overhead. However, Jumbo frame error correction is slower as a result of re-sending larger packets.
