priority, the device with the lowest MAC address will then become the

- Default: 32768
- Range: 0-61440, in steps of 4096
- Options: 0, 4096, 8192, 12288, 16384, 20480, 24576, 28672, 32768,

•
Hello Time
— Interval (in seconds) at which the switch transmits a
configuration message.
- Default: 2
- Minimum: 1
- Maximum: The lower of 10 or [(Max. Message Age / 2) -1]
•
Maximum Age
— The maximum time (in seconds) the switch 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 ages
out STP 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. (References to “ports” in this section means “interfaces,”
which includes both ports and trunks.)
- Default: 20
- Minimum: The higher of 6 or [2 x (Hello Time + 1)].
- Maximum: The lower of 40 or [2 x (Forward Delay - 1)]
•
Forward Delay
— The maximum time (in seconds) the switch 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.
