Using the BayStack 303 and 304 Ethernet Switches

Bridge Forward Delay

Indicates the Forward Delay parameter value that is specified (set by management) for this bridge. Range is 1 to 65535 seconds with a default of 15 seconds

Note that all bridges participating in the spanning tree network use the root bridge’s Forward Delay parameter value (see also the “Forward Delay” parameter definition on page 3-8).

Spanning Tree Port Information

The Spanning Tree Port Information screen displays status on the following parameters:

Port number

Provides the number of each port on the switch.

Port priority

Provides the priority of each port, which is used in conjunction with the port number to create a unique port identifier. The valid range for this value is from 0 to 255. The default value is 128.

Port path cost

This information provides the path cost to the designated root bridge. The valid range for this value is from 1 to 65,535. Entering a value of 0 causes the switch software to compute the value automatically. The default value for this field is 0.

Port Statistics and Status Information

The Port Statistics and Status Information screen displays a list of all the ports with their current settings and status. When you enter the number corresponding to the port to be viewed, the following information is displayed:

Rx Good Frame

This counter increments whenever a frame is received successfully.

Rx Align Error Frame

This counter records frame alignment errors for the 10 Mb/s ports.
