RSTP Port Status
➤
Port/Group: The number of a port or the ID of a static trunk.
➤
Path Cost: The cost for a packet to travel from this port to the root in the current Spanning Tree
configuration. The slower is the media, the higher is the cost.
➤
Edge Port: Shows if this port is functioning as an edge port, either through manual selection (see
the RSTP Port Configuration table) or auto-detection. Note that if the switch detects another
bridge connected to this port, the manual setting for Edge Port will be overridden, and the port
functions as a point-to-point connection instead.
➤
P2P Port: Shows if this port is functioning as a Point-to-Point connection. The switch can
automatically determine if the interface is attached to a point-to-point link or to shared media. If
shared media is detected, the switch assumes that it is connected to two or more bridges.
➤
Protocol: Shows the spanning tree protocol functioning on this port, either RSTP or STP (STP-
compatible mode).
