If the bridge is the root bridge, or is attempting to become the root, and
you want to change the time period the bridge will spend in the listening
state, i.e., listening to BPDU activity on the network while moving from
the blocking to the learning state:

2. Enter the new time at this field, in seconds. A time of 4 to 30 seconds
