TopoAge Amount of time in seconds since the last topology
change
TopoChanges Number of times the spanning tree topology has been
changed since the node booted up
DesignatedRoot Identifies the spanning tree’s designated root for a
particular spanning tree instance
RootCost Identifies the total path cost to the designated root
RootPort Port used to reach the root
MaxAge Maximum time that received-protocol information is
retained before it is discarded
HelloTime Time interval, in seconds, between the transmission of
configuration BPDUs by a bridge that is the spanning
tree root or is attempting to become the spanning tree
root
HoldTime Minimum time period, in seconds, that elapses during
the transmission of configuration information on a
given port
ForwardDelay Time spent by a port in the listening state and the
learning state
