spanning-tree mst cost
Use the spanning-tree mst cost command in Interface Configuration mode
to configure the internal path cost for multiple spanning tree (MST)
calculations. If a loop occurs, the spanning tree considers path cost when
selecting an interface to put in the forwarding state. To return to the default
port path cost, use the no form of this command.

• instance-ID — ID of the spanning -tree instance. (Range: 1-4094)
• cost — The port path cost. (Range: 0–200,000,000)
