To manually control reconfiguration of AFT sizes using the Web
Agent:
1. Select Configuration from the L2 Switching > Address
Forwarding Table group in the Web Agent window. The
Address Forwarding Table Configuration dialog box
opens (Figure 6-2).
2. Enter a new Auto-Sizing Utilization Threshold
percentage in the Threshold (Util%) field, if you just want to
cause the table reconfiguration to occur at a different level of
usage efficiency. The default value of 40% is recommended
for most applications.
* Note: Raising the value in the Threshold (Util%) field
might cause the table to be relearned more
frequently, and makes address space usage more
efficient.
To manually control reconfiguration of AFT sizes using the CLI,
enter the following command in Enable/Configure mode:
<configure># set aft auto-sizing-threshold
Refer to the Command Reference Guide for the Avaya P550R, P580, P880,
and P882 Multiservice Switches, Version 5.3.1 for details about this
command.
The AFT can hold 24,000 entries on each switch. The switch Web
Agent provides a utility that allows you to filter which addresses it
displays, making the list more manageable. Multiple criteria can be
selected to produce a sophisticated filter. The parameters are treated
as "ands," meaning that displayed addresses must meet all selected
criteria.
You can search the AFT using the Web Agent or the CLI.
To filter the AFT using the Web Agent:
1. Select Address Search from the Address Forwarding
Table group on the Web Agent window. The Address
Entry Search dialog box opens (Figure 6-4)
