TOPOLO-
GYCHANGE
Controls the detection of topology changes on the
associated port. This allows the disabling of topology
change detection on ports that are known to be con-
nected to single end stations that could cause the Topol-
ogy Change Notification mechanism to be triggered for
the entire network when the end station is power
cycled.
