Table 42. Spanning Tree Parameter Descriptions
Parameter Explanation
AP Name Enter a unique name for this access point. The
name can be from 1 to 16 characters. The default
is the access point serial number.
LAN ID (Domain) Enter the LAN ID. All access points must have
the same LAN ID to participate in the same
spanning tree. The LAN ID is a number from 0 to
254.
Root Priority Determines if this access point is a candidate to
become the root of the spanning tree. The access
point with the highest root priority becomes the
root whenever it is powered on and active.
The root priority can be a value from 0 (off) to 7.
The value 1 is the highest priority for a
participating access point.
If you set the root priority to 0, the access point
can never become the root access point. All
access points on the secondary LAN should have
a root priority of 0.
For help deciding if this access point should be a
candidate to become root, see “About the
Primary LAN and the Root Access Point” on
page 131.
Enable GVRP for
VLAN
The access point uses GARP VLAN Registration
Protocol (GVRP) to request a VLAN-capable
Ethernet switch to forward traffic for specific
VLANs.
Enabling this parameter lets the switch exchange
VLAN configuration information with other GVRP
switches, prune unnecessary broadcast, prune
unknown unicast traffic, and dynamically create
and manage VLANs on switches connected
through 802.1Q trunk ports.
A switch may also be configured statically to
always forward specific VLANs to specific ports.
You should clear this check box for a static
configuration.
