Description

Address Ageing

Timeout (seconds)

The forwarding database contains static entries, which are never aged out, and

dynamically learned entries, which are removed if they are not updated within a

given time. You specify that time by entering a value for the Address Ageing

Timeout. You may enter any number of seconds between 10 and 1000000.

IEEE 802.1D recommends a default of 300 seconds, which is the factory default.

4.2.4.2 Search

Use this panel to display information about entries in the forwarding database. These entries are used by the transparent
