If data is streaming in on vlan10 to the vlan4 bridge, then we switch the customer to vlan10, the streaming data will continue on to the bridge server and the customer will not be able to transfer data until that stream dies or if the timer just happens to be expiring for that MAC. So we need to clear the mac. I did a brctl setageing 3 to set the timer lower. But what effect could this have when I have some 50k to 100k mac's known by the bridging server? > > Thanks, > Brad Dameron > Clearw're > Network Engineer TierII If you remove vlan from bridge (or force carrier down), then the entries are purged -- Stephen Hemminger <shemminger at linux-foundation.org>
