VLAN type in this screen. See

Bridge Control
Protocol
Transparency Select Active to allow the Switch to handle bridging control protocols
(STP, for example). You also need to define how to treat a BPDU in the
Port Setup screen.
MAC Address
Learning MAC address learning reduces outgoing traffic broadcasts. For MAC
address learning to occur on a port, the port must be active.
Aging Time Enter a time from 10 to 1000000 seconds. This is how long all
dynamically learned MAC addresses remain in the MAC address table
before they age out (and must be relearned).
GARP Timer: Switches join VLANs by making a declaration. A declaration is made by
issuing a Join message using GARP. Declarations are withdrawn by issuing a Leave
message. A Leave All message terminates all registrations. GARP timers set declaration
timeout values. See
Chapter 9 on page 119 for more background information.
