[RSTP VLAN Bridge Overview]
VLAN Id:
VLAN ID number.
Bridge Id:
Bridge ID number.
Hello Time:
Interval (in seconds) at which the root device transmits a configuration
message.
Max Age:
The maximum time (in seconds) a device can wait without receiving a
configuration message before attempting to reconfigure. All device ports (except for
designated ports) should receive configuration messages at regular intervals. Any port
that age out STA information (provided in the last configuration message) becomes the
designated port for the attached LAN. If it is a root port, a new root port is selected from
among the device ports attached to the network.
Fwd Delay:
The maximum time (in seconds) the root device will wait before changing
states (i.e., discarding to learning to forwarding). This delay is required because every
device must receive information about topology changes before it starts to forward
frames. In addition, each port needs time to listen for conflicting information that would
make it return to a discarding state; otherwise, temporary data loops might result.
