Usage
Theforwarddelayisthemaximumtime(inseconds)therootdevicewillwaitbeforechanging
states(i.e.,listeningtolearningtoforwarding).Thisdelayisrequiredbecauseeverydevicemust
receiveinformationabouttopologychangesbeforeitstartstoforwardframes.Inaddition,each
portneedstimetolistenfor
conflictinginformationthatwouldmake itreturntoablockingstate;
otherwise,temporarydataloopsmightresult.
