Spanning tree – Bridge Parameters
7.7.1.4 Port
Parameters
This page contains a display window to show and edit the current configurations for
each port. You can select a port then edit it. Click
Modify
to change the port setting for
spanning-tree. The following fields are available:
Instance ID (MSTP Only):
a spanning-tree instance, you can configure MSTP on
your switch to map multiple VLANs into a single STP instance.
Priority:
sets the port priority in the switch. Low numeric value indicates a high
priority. A port with lower priority is more likely to be blocked by STP if a network loop
is detected. The valid value is from 0 to 255.
Path Cost:
the valid value is from 1 to 65535. Higher cost paths are more likely to be
blocked by STP if a network loop is detected.
Link Type:
By default, the link type is determined from the duplex mode of the
interface: a full-duplex port is considered to have a point-to-point connection; a half-
duplex port is considered to have a shared connection.
Edge Port:
An edge port is the same as a Port Fast-enabled port, and you should
enable it only on ports that connect to a single end station.
