ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide
1183
configure stpd hellotime
configure stpd <stpd_name> hellotime <seconds>
Description
Specifies the time delay (in seconds) between the transmission of BPDUs from this STPD when it is the
Root Bridge.
Syntax Description
Default
The default hello time is 2 seconds.
Usage Guidelines
If your STPD has the same name as another component, for example a VLAN, Extreme Networks
recommends that you specify the identifying keyword as well as the name. If your STPD has a name
unique only to that STPD, the keyword
stpd
is optional.
In an MSTP environment, configure the hello timer only on the CIST, not on the MSTIs.
You should not configure any STP parameters unless you have considerable knowledge and experience
with STP. The default STP parameters are adequate for most networks.
The range for the
<seconds>
parameter is 1 through 10 seconds.
Example
The following command sets the time delay from
STPD1
to 10 seconds:
configure stpd stpd1 hellotime 10
History
This command was available in ExtremeWare XOS 10.1.
Platform Availability
This command is available on all platforms.
stpd_name
Specifies an STPD name on the switch.
seconds
Specifies the hello time in seconds. The default is 2 seconds, and the range is
1 to 10 seconds.
