spanning-tree pathcost method long 

 

Step 3  end  

Exits the configuration mode. 

Step 4  show spanning-tree pathcost method 

 

Displays the spanning tree path cost 

method information. 

Step 5  write startup-config 

Optional step – saves this spanning tree 

configuration to be part of startup 

configuration. 

 

 

The “nospanning-tree pathcost method” command resets the path cost method to default 

value. 

 

The example below shows how to configure the path cost method. 

Configure the path cost method as short. 

SMIS# configure terminal 

SMIS(config)# spanning-tree pathcost method short 

SMIS(config)# end

Transmit Hold Count 

Transmit hold count helps control the BPDU burst traffic. The switch limits the number of BPDUs sent in 

one second with the transmit hold count. A higher transmit hold count value of allows switches to send 

more number of BPDUs for faster convergence. But it might lead to high switch CPU utilization.   

The default transmit hold count is 3. 

Follow the steps below to change the transmit hold count value. 

Step  Command 

Description 

Step 1  configure terminal 

Enters the configuration mode 

Step 2  spanning-tree transmit hold-count <count_value> 

 

Configures the transmit hold count 

value. 

 

Count-value – Transmit hold count 

value may be from 1 to 10. 

 

The default transmit hold count value is 

3. 

Step 3  end  

Exits the configuration mode. 

Step 4  show spanning-tree detail 

 

Displays the spanning tree hold count 

information. 

Step 5  write startup-config 

Optional step – saves this spanning tree 

configuration to be part of startup
