GS716Tv2 and GS724Tv3 Software Administration Manual

The following table describes the information available for each entry in the address table.

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.
