Can anyone tell me the proper terminology to use when asking a Cisco guy to change the age-out time for the forwarding table in the dot1dBridge mib? They think I am talking about the arp cache, but I am not. For Switch Analyzer it is recommended to increase the value from the default of 300 seconds to 900 seconds, and I can tell them the mib variable, but I cannot give them the command in Cisco-ese.

For clarity, the mib variable is:

iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.dot1dBridge.dot1dTp.dot1dTpAgingTime
.1.3.6.1.2.1.17.4.2

Cordially,

Leslie, if you have an SNMP tool just go to the MIB you stated above and use community-indexing to set the value for the vlan you want.
Then just read it back to verify it is correct.   ie.. public@1
