forwarding-delay
Use this command to configure the spanning tree bridge forward time globally for
the wireless bridge.
Syntax
bridge stp br-conf forwarding-delay <seconds>
seconds - Time in seconds. (Range: 4 - 30 seconds)
The minimum value is the higher of 4 or [(max-age / 2) + 1].
Default Setting
15 seconds
Command Mode
Global Configuration
Command Usage
This command sets the maximum time (in seconds) the root device will wait before
changing states (i.e., discarding 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 the discarding state; otherwise, temporary
data loops might result.
Example
AP(config)#bridge stp br-conf forwarding-delay 20
AP(config)#
