Example
This example shows how to reset the bridge hello time to 2 seconds:
6.2.1.23 set spantree maxage
Use this command to set the bridge maximum aging time. This is the maximum time (in seconds) 
a device can wait without receiving a configuration message (bridge “hello”) before attempting to 
reconfigure. All device ports (except for designated ports) should receive configuration messages 
at regular intervals. Any port that ages out STP information provided in the last configuration 
message becomes the designated port for the attached LAN. If it is a root port, a new root port is 
selected from among the device ports attached to the network.
set spantree maxage agingtime 
port-string
(Optional) Resets the hello time for specific port(s). 
NOTE: Port-string cannot be specified if bridge 
hello mode is enabled. For information on using the 
set spantree bridgehellomode command, refer to
