1-65535 and default value base on IEEE802.1D

 

10Mb/s = 50-600 100Mb/s = 10-60 1000Mb/s = 3-10

Port Priority

You can make it more or less likely to become the

 

root port, the range is 0-255, and default setting is

 

128.

 

The lowest number has the highest priority.

Edge Port

Edge Port is a port connected to a device that knows

 

nothing about STP or RSTP. Usually, the connected

 

device is an end station. Edge Ports will keep in

 

forwarding state and skip the listening and learning

 

state. When the link on the edge port is changed, the

 

RSTP topology is not affected.
