8.2.8.2spanning-tree priority

This command sets the bridge priority. Specify the command to manipulate the spanning tree topology as intended.

The command defines bridge identifiers with which the device identifies local devices in a spanning tree configuration of switches in a network.

The bridge priority is specified in the high-order two bytes of the bridge identifier. This value is used to manipulate the spanning tree and configure the intended topology.

The root bridge and designated bridge are determined according to the bridge priority, and this sets the structure of the spanning tree. The lower the priority value, the higher the priority. Therefore, specify the minimum value in all bridges in the tree for the root bridge.
