Required
A MSTP-enabled switch can
calculate path costs for all its
ports automatically.
Changing the path cost of a port may change the role of the port and put it in state
transition. If you execute the
stp cost
command with the
instance-id
argument being 0,
the path cost you set is for the CIST.
III. Configuration example (A)
# Configure the path cost of Ethernet1/0/1 port in spanning tree instance 1 to be 2,000.
z
