Managing Address Forwarding

Tables (Layer 2 & Layer 3)

Overview

This chapter and its procedures are common to both Layer 2 and Layer 3 configuration.

Included in this chapter:

❒ Configuring the Address Forwarding Table

❒ Searching the Switch Address Forwarding Table

❒ Adding Entries to the Address Forwarding Table Manually

Configuring the Address Forwarding Table

You can configure the following parameters when using the address forwarding table:

❒ Address Age Time - defines the length of time addresses remain active in the

address forwarding table.

❒ Super Age Time - defines how long inactive addresses are stored in the address

forwarding table before being deleted.

❒ Address Table Sizing Parameters - allow you to adjust what the switch does

when address table use becomes inefficient.

The Address Table dialog box also provides information useful when working with

Lucent support personnel.

Configuring the Age Timer and Super Age Timer

To change the aging values for all instances of the address table:

1. In the Address Forwarding Table section of the Web Agent window, click Tab le

Configuration. The Address Forwarding Table Configuration dialog box opens.

2. In the Age Time field, enter a new value. The default of 300 seconds is the

standards-recommended default. Aged out addresses become invalid until the

switch sees another packet with the aged out entry’s source address.
