Priority

128

Defines the priority for the use of a port in the STA 

algorithm. If the path cost for all ports on a switch are 

the same, the port with the highest priority (i.e., lowest 

value) will be configured as an active link in the 

Spanning Tree. Where more than one port is assigned 

the highest priority, the port with lowest numeric 

identifier will be enabled. The range is 0 - 255.
