Setting the orphaned host aging interval using the CLI

To set the orphaned host aging interval using the CLI:

Enable the CLI configuration mode:
hostname > enable
hostname # configure terminal
Set the host aging interval:
hostname (config) # hx agent aging new-orphan-period <seconds>
where <seconds> is the number of seconds for the aging period for orphaned hosts. The default is 86400 seconds (one day). Valid values range from 86400 seconds (one day) to 31536000 seconds (one year).
To reset this interval back to its default setting enter this command:
hostname (config) # no hx agent aging new-orphan-period
Save your settings.
```
hostname (config) # write mem
```
