aging
The automatic removal of dynamic entries from the Switch Database which have timed-out and are no longer
valid.
ATM
Asynchronous Transfer Mode. A connection oriented transmission protocol based on fixed length cells (packets). ATM
is designed to carry a complete range of user traffic, including voice, data, and video signals.
auto-negotiation
A feature on a port, which allows it to advertise its capabilities for speed, duplex, and flow control. When connected to
an end station that also supports auto-negotiation, the link can self-detect its optimum operating setup.
