STP Function: To selecting enable or disable STP function on the Switch.
Bridge Priority: This value between 0 and 65535 to specify the priority for forwarding packets. The lower the value, the higher the priority. The default is 32768.
Bridge Max Age: This value may be set to ensure that old information does not endlessly circulate through redundant paths in the network, preventing the effective propagation of the new information. Set by the Root Bridge, this value will aid in determining that the Switch has spanning tree configuration values consistent with other devices on the bridged LAN. If the value ages out and a BPDU has still not been received from the Root Bridge, the Switch will start sending its own BPDU to all other switches for permission to become the Root Bridge. If it turns out that your switch has the lowest Bridge Identifier, it will become the Root Bridge. The user may choose a time between 6 and 40 seconds. The default value is 20.
Bridge Hello Time: The user may set the time interval between transmission of configuration messages by the root device, thus stating that the Switch is still functioning. A time between 1 and 10 seconds may be chosen, with a default setting of 2 seconds.
Bridge Forward Delay: The maximum amount of time (in seconds) that the root device will wait before changing states. The user may choose a time between 4 and 30 seconds. The default is 15 seconds.
Port Path Cost: This defines a metric that indicates the relative cost of forwarding packets to specified port list. The value between 1 and 65535 to determine the cost. The lower the number, the greater the probability the port will be chosen to forward packets. The default value is 10.
Port Path Priority: Select a value between 0 and 255 to specify the priority for a specified port for forwarding packets. The lower the value, the higher the priority. The default is 128.
