P2P
The rapid state transitions possible within RSTP depend on whether the port
concerned can only be connected to a specific bridge (it is served by a point-to-point
LAN segment), or can be connected to two or more bridges (it is served by a shared
medium LAN segment).
This function allows the P2P (point-to-point) status of the link to be manipulated
administratively. Select from the following settings:
•
True
—The port is to be regarded as a point-to-point link.
•
False
—The port is to be regarded as a shared link.
•
Auto
—The link type is to be determined by the auto-negotiation between the two
peers.
Edge
The edge port is directly connected to end stations and will not create a bridging loop
in the network.
•
True
—Configures the port as an edge port.
•
False
—Configures the port as a non-edge port.

Bridge ID
The root switch is determined by bridge ID. The switch with the lowest bridge ID will
become the root switch. The bridge ID is a combination of the bridge priority number
(which is configurable) and the MAC address of the switch. For example, in the bridge
ID “32768.0200.0000.1111,” the bridge priority number is “32768” and the switch
MAC address is “0200.0000.1111.” The bridge priority default is 32768, and can only
be configured in multiples of 4096.
Root Priority
The bridge priority of the switch determined to be the root switch.
