rule
Max Age (6-40):
the number of seconds a bridge waits without receiving Spanning-tree
Protocol configuration messages before attempting a reconfiguration. Enter a value
between 6 through 40
Hello Time (1-10):
the time that controls switch sends out the BPDU packet to check
RSTP current status. Enter a value between 1 through 10
Forward Delay Time (4-30):
the number of seconds a port waits before changing from its
Rapid Spanning-Tree Protocol learning and listening states to the forwarding state. Enter
a value between 4 through 30
[NOTE]
1.
Must follow the rule to configure the MAX Age, Hello Time, and Forward Delay
Time
2 x (Forward Delay Time value –1) > = Max Age value >= 2 x (Hello Time
value +1)
2.
Remember to execute the “Save Configuration” action, otherwise the new
configuration will lose when switch power off
