Explanation

The default MAC age-out timer on an EX Series switch is 300 seconds. The MAC age-out timer is the maximum time that an entry can remain in the MAC table before it "ages out," or is removed. This configuration can influence efficiency of network resource use by affecting the amount of traffic that is flooded to all interfaces. When traffic is received for MAC addresses no longer in the Ethernet routing table, the router floods the traffic to all interfaces.
