NOTE:
The Bridge Hello Time cannot be longer than the Bridge Max Age. Otherwise, a configuration
error will occur. Observe the following formulas when setting the above parameters:
Bridge Max Age <= 2 x (Bridge Forward Delay - 1 second)
Bridge Max Age > 2 x (Bridge Hello Time + 1 second)
STP Port Settings
STP can be set up on a port per port basis.
To view the following window, click
L2 Features > Spanning Tree > STP Port Settings
, as show below:
Figure 4-37 STP Port Settings window
It is advisable to define an STP Group to correspond to a VLAN group of ports.
The fields that can be configured are described below:
Parameter Description
Unit
Select the unit you want to configure.
From Port / To Port
Select the starting and ending ports to be configured.
External Cost
(0 = Auto)
This defines a metric that indicates the relative cost of forwarding packets to the
specified port list. Port cost can be set automatically or as a metric value. The default
value is
0
(auto). Setting
0
for the external cost will automatically set the speed for
forwarding packets to the specified port(s) in the list for optimal efficiency. The default
port cost for a 100Mbps port is
200000
and the default port cost for a Gigabit port is
20000
. Enter a value between
1
and
200000000
to determine the External Cost. The
lower the number, the greater the probability the port will be chosen to forward
packets.
P2P
Choosing the
True
parameter indicates a point-to-point (P2P) shared link. P2P ports
are similar to edge ports; however they are restricted in that a P2P port must operate
in full duplex. Like edge ports, P2P ports transition to a forwarding state rapidly thus
benefiting from RSTP. A P2P value of
False
indicates that the port cannot have P2P
status.
Auto
allows the port to have P2P status whenever possible and operate as if
the P2P status were
True
. If the port cannot maintain this status, (for example if the
port is forced to half-duplex operation) the P2P status changes to operate as if the
