The maximum may not be more than the lower of 10 or Switch Maximum Message Age/2–1 .The upper range limit that appears reflects the value currently selected for Switch Maximum Message Age.

Default: 2

Bridge Maximum Message Age (in Seconds)

Enter the maximum message age advertised when this switch is root. The minimum value may not be less than the higher of 6 or (2 x (Switch Hello Time + 1)). The maximum may not be more than the lower of 40 or (2 x (Switch Forward Delay – 1)). The range limits that appear reflect the values currently selected for Switch Hello Time and Switch Forward Delay.

Default: 20

Bridge Forward Delay (in Seconds)

Enter the time the switch waits between transitions from listening to learning, and from learning to forwarding. The minimum may not be less than the larger of 4 or ((Switch Maximum Message Age / 2) +1). The maximum may not be higher than

30.The lower range limit that appears reflects the value currently selected for Switch Maximum Age.

Default: 15
