ExtremeWare Software 7.3.0 Command Reference Guide 1017
configure stpd ports priority
configure stpd <spanning tree name> ports priority <priority> <portlist>
Description
Specifies the port priority of the port in the specified STPD.
Syntax Description
Default
For version 6.0 and later, the default setting is 16.
For version 2.0 and 4.0, the default setting is 128.
Usage Guidelines
You should not configure any STP parameters unless you have considerable knowledge and experience
with STP. The default STP parameters are adequate for most networks.
By changing the priority of the port, you can make it more or less likely to become the root port or a
designated port.
A setting of 0 indicates the highest priority.
On a modular switch,
<portlist>
can be a list of slots and ports. On a stand-alone switch,
<portlist>
can be one or more port numbers. For a detailed explanation of port specification, see “Modular Switch
Numerical Ranges” or “Stand-alone Switch Numerical Ranges” in Chapter 1.
For version 6.0 and later:
• The range for the
priority
parameter is 0 through 31.
For version 2.0 and 4.0:
• The range for the
priority
parameter is 0 through 255.
Example
The following command assigns a priority of 1 to ports 1 through 5 in STPD s0 on a stand-alone switch:
configure stpd s0 ports priority 1 1-5
The following command assigns a priority of 1 to slot 2, ports 1 through 5 in STPD s0 on a modular
switch:
configure stpd s0 ports priority 1 2:1-2:5
spanning tree name Specifies an STPD name on the switch.
priority Specifies a numerical port priority value.
portlist Specifies one or more ports or slots and ports. On a modular switch, can be a
list of slots and ports. On a stand-alone switch, can be one or more port
