The SYSTEM CONFIGURATION - SPANNING TREE
PARAMETERS PAGE allows you to set up bridging
characteristics for the CPU that conform to Spanning
Tree 802.1D protocol. The page displays the following
items:
Bridge Priority
Hello Time (1–10)
Forward Delay Time (4–3)
Max. Age Time (6–40)
Port Priority (0–255)
Port Path Cost (1–65,535)
Bridge Priority (0–65,535)
Each bridge has a unique bridge identifier. Priority is a
part of that identifier; it determines the topology.
Smaller priority entries increase the probability of the
network being selected as the root or primary bridge
between other networks.
