3 Configuring the Switch

Admin MST Path Cost – This parameter is used by the MSTP to determine the best path between devices. Therefore, lower values should be assigned to ports attached to faster media, and higher values assigned to ports with slower media. (Path cost takes precedence over port priority.) Note that when the Path Cost Method is set to short (page 3-63), the maximum path cost is 65,535.

By default, the system automatically detects the speed and duplex mode used on each port, and configures the path cost according to the values shown below. Path cost “0” is used to indicate auto-configuration mode. When the short path cost method is selected and the default path cost recommended by the IEEE 8021w standard exceeds 65,535, the default is set to 65,535.

Range –

-Ethernet: 200,000-20,000,000

-Fast Ethernet: 20,000-2,000,000

-Gigabit Ethernet: 2,000-200,000

Default –

-Ethernet – Half duplex: 2,000,000; full duplex: 1,000,000; trunk: 500,000

-Fast Ethernet – Half duplex: 200,000; full duplex: 100,000; trunk: 50,000

-Gigabit Ethernet – Full duplex: 10,000; trunk: 5,000

Web – Click Spanning Tree, MSTP, Port Configuration or Trunk Configuration. Enter the priority and path cost for an interface, and click Apply.
