maximum number of alias entries per port.

Usage
Upon packet reception, node aliases are dynamically assigned to ports enabled with an alias
agent, which is the default setting on D‐Series devices. Node aliases cannot be statically created,
but can be deleted using the clear node alias command as described in “
clear nodealias config ” on
page 14‐35.
Example
This example shows how to disable the node alias agent on fe.1.3:
D2(su)->set nodealias disable fe .1.3
