Direct packet distribution
3
The Switch can learn up to 8000 addresses. This is necessary if more than
one terminal device is connected to one or more ports. It is thus possible to
connect several independent subnetworks to the Switch.
8.1.3 Aging of learned addresses
The Switch monitors the age of the learned addresses. Address entries
which exceed a certain age (30 seconds, aging time), are deleted by the
Switch from its address table.
The Switch floods data packets with an unknown destination address.
The Switch directly distributes data packets with a known destination ad-
dress.
Note: A reboot deletes the learned address entries.
Select the Switching:Global dialog.
Enter the aging time for all dynamic entries in the range from 10 to
630 seconds (unit: 1 second; default setting: 30). In connection with
the router redundancy (see MACH 3000), select a time greater than/
equal to 30 seconds.
