Field

Description

 

 

bridgeHelloTime

Configurable time period in seconds that elapses between

 

configuration messages when the bridge is the root

 

bridge. (If the bridge is not the root bridge, the bridge

 

uses the value shown in the helloTime field which is

 

assigned to it by the root bridge.) The default value is 2

 

seconds. The acceptable range is 1 – 10 seconds. To

 

configure the bridge hello time, see “bridge spanningTree

 

stpHelloTime” later in this chapter.

bridgeIdentifier

Unique bridge identification that includes the bridge

 

priority value and the MAC address of port 1.

bridgeMaxAge

Configurable time period in seconds that the bridge uses

 

to discard the stored configuration message when it is

 

operating as the root bridge. (If the bridge is not the root

 

bridge, it uses the value shown in the maxAge field

 

instead which is assigned to it by the root bridge.) The

 

default value is 20 seconds. The acceptable range is 6 – 40

 

seconds. To configure the bridge maximum age, see

 

“bridge spanningTree stpMaxAge” later in this chapter.

designatedRoot

Identity of the root bridge. It includes the root bridge’s

 

priority value and the MAC address of port 1 on that

 

bridge.

forwardDelay

Time period in seconds that the bridge spends in each of

 

two states — listening and learning — as assigned by the

 

root bridge. Compare with the bridgeFwdDelay field.

gvrpState

Status of GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) for the

(3500 and 9000 L3)

entire bridge. You configure GVRP as a bridge state as

 

well as individual port states. To configure GVRP for the

 

bridge, see “bridge gvrpState” later in this chapter. To

 

configure GVRP on ports, see “bridge port gvrpState” in

 

Chapter 10.

helloTime

Time period in seconds that elapses between the

 

configuration messages that the bridge receives from the

 

root bridge. Compare with the bridgeHelloTime field.

holdTime

Minimum delay time the bridge uses between topology

 

change BPDUs that it sends.

ipFragmentation

Shows configuration state of the IP fragmentation option.

(3500 and 9000 L3)

The default setting is enabled. To configure this option,

 

see “bridge ipFragmentation” later in this chapter.
