Table 106 CIST Bridge Configuration commands

 

 

Command

Description

 

 

spanning-tree mstp cist-

Configures the CIST bridge forward delay parameter. The forward delay

bridge forward-delay {<4-30>}

parameter specifies the amount of time that a bridge port has to wait

 

before it changes from the listening state to the learning state and from

 

the learning state to the forwarding state. The range is 4 to 30 seconds,

 

and the default is 15 seconds.

 

This command does not apply to RSTP. See the "Bridge Spanning Tree

 

configuration" section for more information.

 

Command mode: Global configuration

 

 

show spanning-tree mstp cist

Displays the current CIST bridge configuration.

 

Command mode: All

 

 

CIST port configuration

CIST port parameters are used to modify MRST operation on an individual port basis. CIST parameters do not affect operation of STP/PVST.

For each port, CIST is turned on by default. Port parameters include:

Port priority

Port path cost

Port Hello time

Link type

Edge

On and off

Current port configuration

The port option of MRST is turned on by default.

The following table describes the commands used to configure CIST Port Configuration commands. Table 107 CIST Port Configuration commands

Command

Description

 

 

spanning-tree mstp cist

Configures the CIST port priority. The port priority helps determine

interface-priority {<0-240>}

which bridge port becomes the designated port. In a network

 

topology that has multiple bridge ports connected to a single segment,

 

the port with the lowest port priority becomes the designated port for

 

the segment. The range is 0 to 240, in steps of 16 (0, 16, 32...), and

 

the default is 128.

 

Command mode: Interface port

 

 

spanning-tree mstp cist path-

Configures the CIST port path cost. The port path cost is used to help

cost {<1-200000000>}

determine the designated port for a segment. Generally speaking, the

 

faster the port, the lower the path cost. The default for Gigabit ports is

 

20000, and for 10Gb ports is 2000.

 

Command mode: Interface port
