MULTILINK ML810 MANAGED EDGE SWITCH – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
CONFIGURING RSTP THROUGH THE COMMAND LINE INTERFACE
CHAPTER 13: RAPID SPANNING TREE PROTOCOL
•
Root Port
: Indicates the port number, which is elected as the root port of the switch. A
root port of "0" indicates STP is disabled.
•
Root Path Cost
: A path cost is assigned to individual ports for the switch to determine
which ports are the forwarding points. A higher cost means more loops; a lower cost
means fewer loops. More loops equal more traffic and a tree which takes a long time
to converge, resulting in a slower system.
•
Designated Root
: Shows the MAC address of the bridge in the network elected or
designated as the root bridge.
•
Designated Root Priority
: Shows the designated root bridge's priority. The default
value is 0.
•
Root Bridge Forward Delay
: Indicates the designated root bridge's forward delay.
This is the time the switch waits before it switches from the listening to the forwarding
state. This value can be set between 4 to 30 seconds, with a default of 15.
•
Root Bridge Hello Time
: Indicates the designated root bridge's hello time. Hello
information is sent out every 2 seconds.
•
Root Bridge Max Age
: Indicates the designated root bridge's maximum age, after
which it discards the information as being old and receives new updates.
•
Topology Change Count
: Since the last reboot, the number of times the topology has
changed. Use this in conjunction with "show uptime" to find the frequency of the
topology changes.
•
Time Since topology Change
: The number of seconds since the last topology change.
The variables listed by the
show stp ports
command are:
•
Port#
: Indicates the port number. The value ranges from 1 to the maximum number of
ports in the switch.
•
Type
: Indicates the type of port. TP indicates twisted pair.
•
Priority
: STP uses this to determine which ports are used for forwarding. Lower
numbers indicate higher priority. The values range from 0 to 255, with a default of 128.
•
Path Cost
: This is the assigned port cost value used for the switch to determine the
forwarding points. Values range from 1 to 2000000. Lower values indicate a lower
cost and hence the preferred route. The costs for different Ethernet speeds are
indicated below. The Path cost in STP is compared to the path cost in RSTP.
