■
Path Cost
— Indicates the port contribution to the root path cost. The
path cost is adjusted to a higher or lower value, and is used to forward
traffic when a path is re-routed.
■
Priority
— Indicates the priority value of the port. The priority value
influences the port choice when a bridge has two ports connected in a
loop. The priority range is between
0-240
. The priority value is
determined in increments of 16.
■
RSTP Link Type
— Indicates whether a Point-to-Point link is
established, or if the device is permitted to establish a Point-to-Point
link. The possible field values are:
■
Auto
— Enables the device to establish automatically
point-to-point link.
■
Point to Point
—
Indicates if a point-to-point link is currently
established on the port. Ports set to Full Duplex modes are
considered Point-to-Point port links.
■
Shared
— Enables the device to establish a shared link.
■
Designated Bridge ID
— Indicates the bridge priority and the MAC
Address of the designated bridge.
■
Designated Port ID
— Indicates the selected port priority and
interface.
■
Designated Cost
— Indicates the cost of the port participating in the
STP topology. Ports with a lower cost are less likely to be blocked if
STP detects loops.
■
Forward Transitions
— Indicates the number of times the port has
changed from
Forwarding
state to
Blocking
state.
