Command Usage
This command sets the maximum time (in seconds) a device can wait without receiving
a configuration message before attempting to reconfigure. All device ports (except for
designated ports) should receive configuration messages at regular intervals. Any port
that ages out STA information (provided in the last configuration message) becomes the
designated port for the attached LAN. If it is a root port, a new root port is selected from
among the device ports attached to the network.
