SET SPANTREE

Use the SET SPANTREE command to change the Spanning Tree configuration parameters of the local Bridge Module.

Format

SET SPANTREE {parameter}

Parameters

{parameter} = bridge_priority forward_delay_time hello_address hello_time

Description

listen_time mode path_cost_port1 path_cost_port2

The SET SPANTREE command enables you to change the Spanning Tree configuration parameters of the local Bridge Module. These configuration parameters will become active if this Bridge Module becomes the Root bridge for the network.

Note that the values assigned to forward_delay_time, hello_time, and listen_time using the SET SPANTREE command are active and in effect only when the local Bridge Module is the root of the Spanning Tree. Otherwise, when the local bridge is a non-root bridge the Root Bridge imposes its values for forward_delay_time, hello_address, hello_time, and listen_time throughout the network (including the local bridge) for as long as that bridge continues to be the Root Bridge.

The SET SPANTREE command parameters have parameters of their own. The following pages describe these parameters in detail.
