Hello Time (1-10)
Enter a value from 1 to 10 seconds. This is a periodic timer that drives
the router to send out BPDU (Bridge Protocol Data Unit) packet to check
current STP status.
The root bridge of the spanning tree topology periodically sends out a
hello message to other devices on the network to check if the topology is
healthy. The hello time is the amount of time the root has waited during
sending hello messages.
Forward Delay
Time (4-30)
Enter a value between 4 and 30 seconds. This value is the time that a
port waits before changing from Spanning Tree Protocol learning and
listening states to forwarding state. This is the amount of time the device
waits before checking to see if it should be changed to a different state.
