problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own
risk.
The entries in this section must be added to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\netTrans\000n
NOTE: Where
n represents a specific TCP/IP-to-network adapter binding.

| Value | Data type | Description |
|---|
| MaxMTU = 16-bit integer | String | Specifies the maximum size datagram Internet Protocol (IP) that can pass to a media driver. Subnetwork Access Protocol (SNAP) and source routing header (if used on the media) are not included in this value. For example, on an Ethernet network, MaxMTU defaults to 1500. The actual value used is the minimum of the value specified with this parameter and the size reported by the media driver. The default value is the size reported by the media driver; an Ethernet network defaults to 1500 bytes and a Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) dial-up connection defaults to 576 bytes. |
| ZeroBroadcast | String | If this parameter is set to 1, the IP uses zeros-broadcasts (0.0.0.0.) instead of ones-broadcasts (255.255.255.255.). Most systems use ones-broadcasts, but some systems derived from Berkeley Style Daemons (BSD) implementations use zeros-broadcasts. Interoperation does not work well on the same network for systems that use different broadcasts. Valid range 0 or 1 (false or true). The default value is 0.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
