Disabling Aging on a Port
Disable aging on a port if you do not want the SSR to age MAC address entries in the 
port’s Layer-2 lookup tables.
Caution: 
Disabling aging on a port may eventually cause the port’s Layer-2 lookup tables 
to become full because the SSR will not remove MAC addresses from those tables.
To disable aging on a port:
1.
Start Configuration Expert if you have not already done so. 
2.
Open the configuration file you want to modify and then double-click that file’s 
Bridging Configuration object.
3.
Double-click the Aging Configuration object.
