Parameter Description
Port The switch port number of the corresponding STP CIST (and MSTI) 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 favors 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).
