Parameters
Description
Priority
You can set the port as root by setting this value, the value
is valid from 0 to 255, and the default is 128, the smaller
value, the higher priority. To change the value, you must
restart the switch.
Path cost
The path cost of the given port, the switch will know
which port is for forwarding through this value. The port
with the smallest value will be the forwarding port; the
value range is from 1 to 65535. The default value in IEEE
802.1D is 0Mb/s = 50-600
；
100Mb/s = 10-60
；
1000Mb/s
= 3-10. To change this value, you need to restart the
switch.
