The purpose of the forwarding delay is to allow STP to learn about other bridges before nominating itself. The only possible impact is that when starting up a new port the bridge may flood a packet now, where previously it might have seen traffic from the other host and preseeded the forwarding table. Includes change for local variable br already available in that func. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S.
