Description
This command is only useful for networks which are designed to
route multicast traffic. If the switch in question is not running
IGMP-Only or a multicast routing protocol on multiple IP interfaces,
this command will have no useful effect.
The forwarding entry cache software is designed to enter a cache
entry into the hardware upon receiving the first frame of a new
flow. In the event that the forwarding entry cache software
continues to receive frames for the same flow for a certain length of
time, the software will assume that the hardware was unable to
install the forwarding entry when last programmed, and will
therefore make a new attempt.
The length of time for which the software waits before attempting to
re-add the forwarding entry is called the readd-timeout. The readd-
timeout should be kept small so that a missed attempt at installing a
forwarding entry will be recovered from quickly. The default
timeout is 2 seconds, and the range of adjustment is from 2 to 60
seconds.
