Configuring Spanning-Tree Features
Note
If your switch is a member of a switch stack, you must use the
spanning-tree
[
vlan
vlan-id
]
cost
cost
interface configuration command instead of the
spanning-tree
[
vlan
vlan-id
]
port-priority
priority
interface configuration command to select an interface to put in the forwarding state. Assign lower cost
values to interfaces that you want selected first and higher cost values that you want selected last. For
more information, see the
“Configuring Path Cost” section on page 18-20
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure the port priority of an interface.
This procedure is optional.
Note
The
show spanning-tree interface
interface-id
privileged EXEC command displays information only
if the port is in a link-up operative state. Otherwise, you can use the
show running-config interface
privileged EXEC command to confirm the configuration.
Command
Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
interface
interface-id
Specify an interface to configure, and enter interface
configuration mode.
Valid interfaces include physical ports and port-channel
logical interfaces (
port-channel
port-channel-number
).
Step 3
spanning-tree port-priority
priority
Configure the port priority for an interface.
For
priority
, the range is 0 to 240, in increments of 16; the
default is 128. Valid values are 0, 16, 32, 48, 64, 80, 96,
112, 128, 144, 160, 176, 192, 208, 224, and 240. All other
values are rejected. The lower the number, the higher the
priority.
Step 4
spanning-tree vlan
vlan-id
port-priority
priority
Configure the port priority for a VLAN.
•
For
vlan-id
, you can specify a single VLAN identified
by VLAN ID number, a range of VLANs separated by
a hyphen, or a series of VLANs separated by a comma.
The range is 1 to 4094.
•
For
priority
, the range is 0 to 240, in increments of 16;
the default is 128. Valid values are 0, 16, 32, 48, 64,
80, 96, 112, 128, 144, 160, 176, 192, 208, 224, and
240. All other values are rejected. The lower the
number, the higher the priority.
Step 5
end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 6
show spanning-tree
interface
interface-id
or
show spanning-tree vlan
vlan-id
Verify your entries.
Step 7
copy running-config startup-config
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
