+Message pool configuration
+**************************
+
+OpenThread uses a message pool to manage memory for message buffers.
+Memory for the message pool can be statically allocated by the OpenThread stack or managed by the platform.
+You can use the :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_PLATFORM_MESSAGE_MANAGEMENT` Kconfig option to enable platform message management.
+
+Message buffer size and number of message buffers in the pool are be configured with the :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_MESSAGE_BUFFER_SIZE` and :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_NUM_MESSAGE_BUFFERS` Kconfig options, respectively.
+By default, both options are set to ``128``.
+
+.. note::
+   When using :ref:`thread_ug_prebuilt`, changing the :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_PLATFORM_MESSAGE_MANAGEMENT` Kconfig option will have no effect.
+   Additionally, the :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_MESSAGE_BUFFER_SIZE` Kconfig option has to be set to the same value that is used in the pre-built library.
