Success.

DES-6500:4#

config stp ports

Purpose

Used to setup STP on the port level.

Syntax

config stp ports <portlist> {externalCost [auto <value 1-

 

200000000>] hellotime <value 1-10> migrate [yes no] edge

 

[true false] p2p [true false auto ] state [enable disable]

 

lbd [enable disable]}

Description

This command is used to create and configure STP for a group of

 

ports.

Parameters

<portlist> Specifies a range of ports to be displayed. The port list

 

is specified by listing the lowest slot number and the beginning

 

port number on that slot, separated by a colon. Then the highest

 

slot number, and the highest port number of the range (also

 

separated by a colon) are specified. The beginning and end of the

 

port list range are separated by a dash. For example, 1:3 specifies

 

slot number 1, port 3. 2:4 specifies slot number 2, port 4. 1:3-2:4

 

specifies all of the ports between slot 1, port 3 and slot 2, port 4

 

in numerical order.

 

externalCost This defines a metric that indicates the relative cost

 

of forwarding packets to the specified port list. Port cost can be set

 

automatically or as a metric value. The default value is auto.

 

auto – Setting this parameter for the external cost will

 

automatically set the speed for forwarding packets to the

 

specified port(s) in the list for optimal efficiency. Default port

 

cost: 100Mbps port = 200000. Gigabit port = 20000.

 

<value 1-200000000>- Define a value between 1 and

 

200000000 to determine the external cost. The lower the

 

number, the greater the probability the port will be chosen to

 

forward packets.

 

hellotime <value 1-10>The time interval between transmission

 

of configuration messages by the designated port, to other

 

devices on the bridged LAN, thus stating that the Switch is still

 

functioning. The user may choose a time between 1 and 10

 

seconds. The default is 2 seconds.

 

migrate [yes no] – Setting this parameter as “yes” will set the

 

ports to send out BDPU packets to other bridges, requesting

 

information on their STP setting If the Switch is configured for

 

RSTP, the port will be capable to migrate from 802.1d STP to

 

802.1w RSTP. If the Switch is configured for MSTP, the port is

 

capable of migrating from 802.1d STP to 802.1s MSTP. RSTP

 

and MSTP can coexist with standard STP, however the benefits of

 

RSTP and MSTP are not realized on a port where an 802.1d

 

network connects to an 802.1w or 802.1s enabled network.

 

Migration should be set as yes on ports connected to network
