Pressing a sets the node summary aging time, which is the amount of time the hub stores node summary data. Each time a new device uses a port, or the frame type changes, the hub stores an entry in the Node Summary log. If the hub does not receive data again from that node within the specified aging time, the node data is purged from the log.

If the aging time is set to a short time span, prob- lem nodes may time out and be dropped from the Node Summary table.
