Configuring the MAC Information queue length
If the MAC Information queue length is 0, the device sends a Syslog or trap message immediately after
learning or deleting a MAC address.
If it is not 0, the device stores MAC address changes in the queue:
•
When the timer set for sending Syslog or trap messages does not expire, the device overwrites the
last piece of information written into the queue with the new MAC address change if the queue has
been exhausted.
•
When the timer set for sending Syslog or trap messages expires, the device sends Syslog or trap
messages regardless of whether the queue has been exhausted.
