4.9 RSTP

Configuration

Description

 

 

System Priority

The lower the bridge priority is the higher priority it has. Usually, the bridge

 

with the highest bridge priority is the root. Value: 0 ~ 61440

Hello Time

Hello Time is used to determine the periodic time to send normal BPDU

 

from designated ports among bridges. It decides how long a bridge should

 

send this message to other bridge to tell I am alive.

Max Age

When the switch is the root bridge, the whole LAN will apply this setting

 

as their maximum age time.

Forward Delay

This figure is set by Root Bridge only. The forward delay time is defined as

 

the time spent from Listening state moved to Learning state and also from

 

Learning state moved to Forwarding state of a port in bridge.

Force Version

Two options are offered for choosing STP algorithm.

 

Compatible - STP (IEEE 802.1D)

 

Normal - RSTP (IEEE 802.1w)
