Spanning-Tree Commands 271
spanning-tree mst cost
The
spanning-tree mst cost
Interface Configuration mode command configures the path cost for
multiple spanning tree (MST) calculations. If a loop occurs, the spanning tree considers path cost
when selecting an interface to put in the forwarding state. To return to the default configuration,
use the
no
form of this command.
