Field	Description
Bridge Identifier	The bridge identifier for the CST. It is made up using the bridge priority and
	the base MAC address of the bridge.
Time Since Topology Change	The time in seconds since the topology of the CST last changed.
Topology Change Count	The number of times the topology has changed for the CST.
Topology Change	The value of the topology change parameter for the switch indicating if a
	topology change is in progress on any port assigned to the CST. The value is
	either True or False.
Designated Root	The bridge identifier of the root bridge. It is made up from the bridge priority
	and the base MAC address of the bridge.
Root Path Cost	Path cost to the designated root for the CST.
Root Port	Port to access the Designated Root for the CST.
Max Age (secs)	Specifies the bridge maximum age for CST. The value must be less than or
	equal to (2 X bridge forward delay) – 1 and greater than or equal to 2 X
	(bridge hello time +1).
Forward Delay (secs)	Derived value of the root port bridge forward delay parameter.
Hold Time (secs)	Minimum time between transmission of configuration BPDUs.
CST Regional Root	Priority and base MAC address of the CST regional root.
CST Path Cost	Path cost to the CST tree regional root.
