DMINISTERING THE RIDGE
The address threshold for a bridge is the reporting threshold for the total
number of Ethernet addresses known to the system. When this threshold is
reached, the SNMP trap addressThresholdEvent is generated.
The range of valid values for this parameter is between 1 and the address
table size + 1. Setting the address threshold to one greater than the address
table size disables the generation of addressThresholdEvents because the
limit will never be reached. The default value is 8000.
To set the address threshold:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
bridge addressThreshold
2 Enter the value of the threshold.
The bridge aging time is the maximum period (in seconds) for aging out
dynamically learned forwarding information. This parameter allows you to
configure the system to age addresses in a timely manner, without
increasing packet flooding.
The values can range from 10 to 32,267 seconds. The default value is 300
seconds, which is 5 minutes.
To set the bridge aging time:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
bridge agingTime
2 Enter the aging time value.
