MTU Size
The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) is the largest physical packet size a network
can transmit for TCP and UDP. Enter between
512
and
1400
bytes. The default is
1400 bytes.
MTU Size: (1400) ? _
TCP Re-transmission Timeout
This feature allows the configuration of the desired TCP re-transmission timeout
value.
If the ACK is not received for a packet sent from the WiPort device, then the
unit will retransmit the data.
The valid range is 500-4000 msec.
MTU Size *512 – 1499): (500) ? _
Enable Alternate MAC
If necessary, enable the alternate MAC address (if specified in the OEM setup
record).
Enable alternate MAC (N) ? _
Ethernet Connection Type
The WiPort allows for the Ethernet speed to be manually configured. Enter
0
for
automatic negotiation (default). To select the speed and duplex, enter one of the
following:
2
(10Mbit/half duplex),
3
(10Mbit/full duplex),
4
(100Mbit/half duplex), or
5
(100Mbit/full duplex).
Note:
Manually configured speed/duplex settings only work correctly if the peer or
switch also uses a static setting. If the peer is set for auto negotiation, it will not
necessarily result in the correct mode. This is a common Ethernet problem and is not
WiPort-specific.

Configurable Server Port Number
The host attached to the WiPort may communicate with other CoBos devices on the
wireless network using the Lantronix Configuration Access Protocol (LCAP). This
service is available on server port number 0x77FE (30718) and is fixed. When the
WiPort is in bridging mode, the LCAP port number is modifiable so that the LCAP

Automatic Host MAC Detection
When Automatic Host MAC Detection is disabled (set to “N”) for bridging mode, the
MAC address of the bridged host can be set.
When enabled (set to “Y'”), the MAC
address of the bridged host is detected automatically.
