LAN Table management

The LAN Table Management page enables the user to reduce the number of LAN (MAC) table entries therefore limiting the number of network entities concurrently connected though the EasyST/ProST .

Once the  number of the MAC table entries reduced to desired value N (N<128) , N+1 MAC will not be updated on the table until aging time of one of MACs in the table has expired (aging time can be set separately). By doing that the traffic from this LAN entry (PC or SOHO router for example) will be prevented from forwarding through the WiMAX network.

Via this menu operator can set aging time (default is 60 sec).
