Description: The value that all bridges use for MaxAge when this bridge is acting as the root. Note that 802.1D-1990 specifies that the range for this parameter is related to the value of rcStgBridgeHelloTime. The granularity of this timer is specified by 802.1D-1990 to be 1 second. An agent may return a badValue error if a set is attempted to a value which is not a whole number of seconds.
What is rcStgBridgeMaxAge?
The Max Age value, in hundredths of a second, that this bridge would advertise to the whole Spanning Tree Group if it became the root bridge; defaults to 2000 (20 seconds) and must be a whole number of seconds. Admins tune this when adjusting how quickly stale STP information is aged out network-wide should this switch become root.
