This page contains settings for physical and aggregated ports.
Port
The switch port number.
STP Enabled
Controls whether STP is enabled on this switch port.
Path Cost
Controls the path cost incurred by the port. The Auto setting will set the path cost as
appropriate by the physical link speed, using the 802.1D recommended values. Using
the Specific setting, a user-defined value can be entered. The path cost is used when
establishing the active topology of the network. Lower path cost ports are chosen as
forwarding ports in favour of higher path cost ports. Valid values are in the range 1 to
200000000.
Priority
Controls the port priority. This can be used to control priority of ports having identical
port cost. (See above).
operEdge (state flag)
Operational flag describing whether the port is connecting directly to edge devices. (No
Bridges attached). Transition to the forwarding state is faster for edge ports (having
operEdge true) than for other ports. The value of this flag is based on AdminEdge and
AutoEdge fields. This flag is displayed as Edge in Monitor->Spanning Tree -> STP
Detailed Bridge Status.
AdminEdge
Controls whether the operEdge flag should start as set or cleared. (The initial operEdge
state when a port is initialized).
