Explorer RIF Aging Time

On output, the Translational Switch UEM quickly deletes addresses known only from forwarded explorer frames. The session starts with an explorer frame followed by a specifically routed frame. The explorer frame’s RIF aging time makes it possible to limit the number of known address and RIF entries to established sessions. Possible values are 0 to 900 seconds. A RIF with an address is removed after this time if a specifically routed frame does not follow the explorer.

Default: 10 seconds
