At the bottom of this page, the user can configure the “Settings” of this function. For RSTP, you can configure:
Protocol of Redundancy
Setting | Description | Factory Default |
Turbo Ring | Select this item to change to the Turbo Ring | None |
| configuration page. |

|
Bridge priority |
|
|
|
|
|
Setting | Description | Factory Default |
Numerical value selected | Increase this device’s bridge priority by | 32768 |
by user | selecting a lower number. A device with a |
|
| higher bridge priority has a greater chance of |
|
| being established as the root of the Spanning |
|
| Tree topology. |
|
Forwarding Delay |
|
|
Setting | Description | Factory Default |
Numerical value input by | The amount of time this device waits before | 15 (sec.) |
user | checking to see if it should change to a |
|
| different state. |
|
Hello time (sec.) |
|
|
|
|
|
Setting | Description | Factory Default |
Numerical value input by | The root of the Spanning Tree topology | 2 |
user | periodically sends out a “hello” message to |
|
| other devices on the network to check if the |
|
| topology is healthy. The “hello time” is the |
|
| amount of time the root waits between sending |
|
| hello messages. |
|
Max. Age (sec.) |
|
|
|
|
|
Setting | Description | Factory Default |
Numerical value input by | If this device is not the root, and it has not | 20 |
user | received a hello message from the root in an |
|
| amount of time equal to “Max. Age,” then this |
|
| device will reconfigure itself as a root. Once |
|
| two or more devices on the network are |
|
| recognized as a root, the devices will |
|
| renegotiate to set up a new Spanning Tree |
|
| topology. |
|
Enable STP per Port |
|
|
|
|
|
Setting | Description | Factory Default |
Enable/Disable | Select to enable the port as a node on the | Disabled |
| Spanning Tree topology. |
