occurs, the MSTP function will use the port priority to select an interface to put into the forwarding state. Set
a higher priority value for interfaces to be selected for forwarding first. In instances where the priority value is
identical, the MSTP function will implement the lowest MAC address into the forwarding state and other
interfaces will be blocked.
