Was ist MTU?
MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) is a networking term that refers to the largest size of a data packet that can be transmitted over a network without being fragmented. Fragmentation is the process of breaking a large packet into smaller pieces so that it can be transmitted over a network.
Importance of MTU
MTU is important because it affects the performance of a network. If the MTU is set too low, packets may be fragmented, which can lead to decreased performance. If the MTU is set too high, packets may be dropped, which can also lead to decreased performance.
