Dynamic Address Configuration

Use the Dynamic Addresses page to set the amount of time to keep a learned MAC address
entry in the forwarding database. 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.
To access the Configuration page, click Switching  Address Table  Advanced  Dynamic
Addresses.
To configure the Dynamic Address setting:
1. Specify the number of seconds the forwarding database should wait before deleting a
learned entry that has not been updated. IEEE 802.1D-1990 recommends a default of
300 seconds. You may enter any number of seconds between 10 and 1000000. The
factory default is 300.
