Filter aging time

This setting has no effect on existing MAC address filters.

 

Enter how long (1~2147483647 seconds) the MAC address filter

 

remains in the Switch after the Switch identifies an unauthorized

 

ARP packet. The Switch automatically deletes the MAC address

 

filter afterwards. Enter 0 if you want the MAC address filter to be

 

permanent.

 

 

Log Profile

 

 

 

Log buffer size

Enter the maximum number (1~1024) of log messages that were

 

generated by ARP packets and have not been sent to the syslog

 

server yet. Make sure this number is appropriate for the specified

 

Syslog rate and Log interval.

 

If the number of log messages in the Switch exceeds this number,

 

the Switch stops recording log messages and simply starts

 

counting the number of entries that were dropped due to

 

unavailable buffer. Click Clearing log status table in the ARP

 

Inspection Log Status screen to clear the log and reset this

 

counter. See Section 26.6.2 on page 253.
