2 × (forwarddelay - 1) ≥ maxage maxage ≥ 2 × (hellotime + 1)
Configuration saving saves this information. By default the forward delay time is set to 15 seconds.
Example:
DSL bridge> spanning forwarddelay 10 | ;Sets the forwarding |
| delay to 10 seconds. |
11. spanning hellotime
Syntax:
spanning hellotime [<time>]
Description:
Reads or sets the time in seconds, after which the spanning tree process sends notification of topology changes to the root bridge, and is used when the bridge is or is attempting to become the root bridge. The hello time may be any value between 1 and 10 and is also constrained by the forwarddelay and maxage times. The hello time may also be changed by SNMP command.
Configuration saving saves this information. By default the hello time is set to 2 seconds.
Example:
DSL bridge> spanning hellotime 5 | ;Sets the hello time |
| to 5 seconds |
12. spanning maxage
Syntax:
spanning maxage [<time>]
Description:
Reads or sets the maximum age of received spanning tree protocol information before it is discarded, and is used when the bridge is or is attempting to become the root bridge. The maxage time may be any value between 6 and 40 and is also constrained by the forwarddelay and hellotime times. The maxage time may also be changed by SNMP command.
Configuration saving saves this information. By default the maxage time is set to 20 seconds.
Example:
DSL bridge> spanning maxage 6 | ;Sets the maxage |
| time to 6 seconds |
