Max
(Message)
Age
20
The maximum time (in sec onds) a device can
wait witho ut receiving a configuration
message before attempting to reconfigure. All
device ports (except for designated ports)
should r eceive configuration messages at
regular intervals. Any port that ages out STA
information (provided in the last co nfiguratio n
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.
The minimum value is
the h igher of 6 or [2 x (Hello Time + 1)].
The maximum value is
the lower of 40 or [2 x (Forward Delay - 1)].
Priority
32,768
Device priority is used in selecting the ro ot
device, root po rt, and designated port. The
device with the highest priority becomes the
STA r oot device. However, if all devices have
the same priority, the device with the lowest
MAC address will then become the root
device.
Enter a value from 0 - 65535.
Rememb er that the low er the numeric value,
the h igher th e prio rity.
For ward
Delay
15
The maximum time (in seconds) the root
device will wait before changing states (i.e.,
listening 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 retur n to a blocking state;
otherwise, temporary data loops might result.
The maximum value is 30.
The minimum value is
the higher of 4 or [(Max. Message Age / 2) + 1].
