User’s Manual of IGS-20040MT
A port entering error-disabled state due to this setting is subject to the bridge Port
Error Recovery setting as well.
Controls whether the port connects to a point-to-point LAN rather than a shared
medium. This can be automatically determined, or forced either true or false.
Transitions to the forwarding state is faster for point-to-point LANs than for
shared media.

By default, the system automatically detects the speed and duplex mode used on each port, and configures the path cost
according to the values shown below. Path cost “0” is used to indicate auto-configuration mode. When the short path cost
method is selected and the default path cost recommended by the IEEE 8021w standard exceeds 65,535, the default is set to
65,535.
