For optimal performance, the following settings should be made in the driver settings for the used network adapters. Please consider that the screenshots shown here were made for Intel adapters. When using different hardware, the same settings might be named differently.

You can access the driver settings from the Ethernet properties dialog:

Jumbo packets

To minimize overhead for the network transmission, the packet size should be maximized. This property should be set to the highest possible value.

Interrupt moderation

To reduce the number of interrupts and thus the CPU load, the interrupt moderation feature should be adjusted. Interrupt moderation is enabled by default. The value for interrupt moderation rate should be set to "High".

Receive buffers

As the amount of streamed data from GigE cameras is immense, for best stability of the stream it is recommended to increase the size of the receive buffers. The value should be increased to the highest possible setting.
