Check your software version on the 3550, the aging command is in the
3550 with 12.1(9)EA1c that I have.

I also know IOS 12.1(11)EA1 is out for the 3550 which fixes a big
spanning-tree problem...

Subject: CAT 3550 port security aging??

One of the popular commercial lab scenarios has a section on CAT3550.

It requires you to implement port-security tied to a particular NIC
card.

No problem

"int fa0/1
  switchport port-security
  switchport port-security mac-address 0002.abcd.ef10
"

I hear you say.

However, it goes on to require you to allow a new NIC to connect after
xxx if it has not heard from the original NIC. ie to age out the port-
security mac address.

The solution suggests that there is a 'switchport port-security aging
time xxxx' command. However, on the 3550 that I tried it on there is no
such command!

Nor is it documented on the March 2002 CD under the CAT3550.

There is such an option for a CAT2924XL with recent firmware.

Any Ideas?

Thanks

Peter
