11.2.3.13set port stopaging
Use this command to enable or disable stopping the aging process of MAC address entries on one 
or more ports. When enabled, this will prevent addresses from aging out due to inactivity on 
configured ports. Addresses will, however, update properly if moved from port to port. 
set port stopaging port-string [enable disable]
Syntax Description
Command Defaults
If disable is not specified, stopaging will be enabled.
Command Type
Switch command.
Command Mode
Read-Write.
Example
This example shows how to enable the stop aging function on Fast Ethernet front panel ports 1 
through 8:
NOTE: This command must be configured in groups of eight ports for Fast Ethernet 
ports. Port string variables that are a subset of eight will be rounded up to include all 
eight ports. For example, if you enable stop aging on ports fe.0.1-4, ports fe.0.1-8 will 
also be enabled. If you enable it on ports fe.0.4-12, this spans two groups of eight, so 
groups fe.0.1-8, and fe.0.9-16 will be enabled. The show command will reflect the actual 
setting. For a detailed description of designating port-string values, refer to 
 port-string
