Use this screen to change the priority and the path cost for specific ports. The priority default value is 128, and the value range is 0–240 (in multiples of 16).

The lower the assigned port path cost is, the more likely that port will be accessed. The default port path cost for a 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps port is the result of the equation:

Path cost = 1000/LAN speed (in Mbps)

Therefore, for 10 Mbps ports, the default port path cost is 100. For 100 Mbps ports, it is 10. To allow for faster networks, the port path cost for a 1000 Mbps port is set by the standard at 4.

The default values for path cost is determined by the operating port speed:

For ports operating in 1000Mb speed, the path cost is 20000

For ports operating in 100Mb speed, the path cost is 200000 For ports operating in 10Mb speed, the path cost is 2000000
