Modifying Global PVST+ Parameters
The root bridge sets the values for forward-delay and hello-time, and overwrites the values set on other PVST+ bridges.
• Forward-delay — the amount of time an interface waits in the Listening state and the Learning state before it transitions to the
Forwarding state.
• Hello-time — the time interval in which the bridge sends bridge protocol data units (BPDUs).
• Max-age — the length of time the bridge maintains configuration information before it refreshes that information by recomputing the
PVST+ topology.
To change PVST+ parameters on the root bridge, use the following commands.
• Change the forward-delay parameter.
PROTOCOL PVST mode
vlan forward-delay
The range is from 4 to 30.
The default is 15 seconds .
• Change the hello-time parameter.
PROTOCOL PVST mode
vlan hello-time
NOTE: With large configurations (especially those configurations with more ports), Dell Networking recommends
increasing the hello-time.
The range is from 1 to 10.
The default is 2 seconds .
• Change the max-age parameter.
PROTOCOL PVST mode
vlan max-age
The range is from 6 to 40.
The default is 20 seconds .
The values for global PVST+ parameters are given in the output of the
show spanning-tree pvst
command.
