Parameter
Description
Priority
Priority is used in determining the root switch, root port and designated port. The switch
with the highest priority (lowest numeric value) becomes the STP root switch. If all switches
have the same priority, the switch with the lowest MAC address will then become the root
switch.
Enter a value from 0~61440.
The lower the numeric value you assign, the higher the priority for this bridge.
Priority determines the root bridge, which in turn determines the Root Hello Time, Root
Maximum Age and Root Forwarding Delay.
Pathcost
Path cost is the cost of transmitting a frame on to a LAN through that port. It is
recommended to assign this value according to the speed of the bridge. The slower the
media, the higher the cost.
