SET SWITCH AGINGTIMER
Syntax
set switch agingtimer=value
Parameter
agingtimer Specifies the aging timer for the MAC address table.
The value is in seconds. The range is 1 to 1048575.
The default is 300 seconds (5 minutes).
Description
The switch uses the aging time to delete inactive dynamic MAC
addresses from the MAC address table. When the switch detects that no
packets have been sent to or received from a particular MAC address in
the table after the period specified by the aging time, the switch deletes
the address. This prevents the table from becoming full of addresses of
nodes that are no longer active.
Example
The following command sets the aging timer to 120 seconds (2 minutes):
set switch agingtimer=120
