Thanks Francois

I managed to find out. I think that the Cat1900 has
the ports status set to PORTFAST by default (command:
start-forwarding), hence, it removes the foward delay
time (15+15) = 30 sec, only using MaxAge = 20 sec.
If you configure the port with no start-forwarding
i.e. disable the PORTFAST, it then takes the 50
seconds to change over.

Thanks you you reply.

Taz.
