Chapter 4: Web-Based Management

The following are the user-configurable STP parameters for the port or port group level:

PARAMETER

DESCRIPTION

 

DEFAULT VALUE

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A relative priority for each switch - lower numbers give a

128

Port Priority

higher priority and a greater chance of a given switch being

 

elected as the root bridge.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

200,000-100Mbps

 

A value used by STP to evaluate paths - STP calculates path

Fast Ethernet ports

Port Cost

costs and selects the path with the minimum cost as the

20,000-1000Mbps

 

active path.

NOTE: The Hello Time cannot be longer than the Max. Age. Otherwise, a configuration error will occur.

Observe the following formulas when setting the above parameters:

Max. Age _ 2 x (Forward Delay - 1 second)

Max. Age _ 2 x (Hello Time + 1 second)

RSTP System Configuration

This section provides RSTP-System Configuration from the Switch, the screen in Figure 61 appears.

The user can view spanning tree information of Root Bridge.

The user can modify RSTP state. After modification, click the Apply button.
