This page allows the user to configure and display Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) port settings.
Available settings are explained as follows:
Item Description
Ports Use the drop down to specify the interface ID or the list of
interface IDs.
Path Cost (0=Auto) 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. Entering 0 means the switch will
automatically assign a value.
Priority Specify a priority value for the switch. The smaller the priority
value, the higher the priority and greater chance of becoming
the root.
Edge Port In the edge mode, the interface would be put into the
Forwarding state immediately upon link up. If the edge mode
is enabled for the interface and there are BPDUs received on
the interface, the loop might be occurred in the short time
