System Prorty
Bridge priority is used in selecting the
root device, root port, and designated port. The device
with the highest priority becomes the STA root device.
However, if all devices have the same priority, the device
with the lowest MAC address will then become the root
device. The default value is
68
. The range is 0 to 61440
in steps of 4096.
Hello Tme
Interval (in seconds) at which the root device
transmits a configuration message. The default is
seconds. The range is 0 to 10 seconds.
Max Age
The maximum time (in seconds) a device can
wait without receiving a configuration message before
attempting to reconfigure. The default max age is
0
seconds. The range is 6 to 40 seconds.
Forward Delay
The maximum time (in seconds) this
device will wait before changing states (i.e., discarding
to learning to forwarding). The default is
15
seconds. The
range is 4 to 30 seconds.
STP Port Settings
Port
Displays the port number.
Enable STP
Indicates if STP is enabled on the port.
Port Fast
Indicates if Port Fast is enabled on the port.
If Port Fast mode is enabled for a port, the Port State
is automatically placed in the Forwarding state when
the port link is up. Port Fast optimizes the STP protocol
convergence.
Path Cost
The path cost is used to determine the best
path between devices. The default value is
auto
.
