ParameterDescription

 

 

STA State

Shows if STA is enabled on the switch and participated

 

an STA compliant network.

 

 

Designated Root

The unique Bridge Identifier of the Bridge recorded as

 

the Root in the Configuration BPDUs transmitted by the

 

Designated Bridge for the segment to which the port is

 

attached.

 

 

Bridged ID

The MAC address used by this bridge when it must be

 

referred to in a unique fashion. It is recommended that

 

this be the numerically smallest MAC address of all ports

 

that belong to this bridge. However it is only required to

 

be unique.

 

 

Root Port

The port number of the port which offers the lowest cost

 

path from this bridge to the root bridge.

 

 

Max Age (6~40 sec)

The maximum age of Spanning Tree Protocol

 

information learned from the network on any port before

 

it is discarded, in units of a second. This is the actual

 

value that this bridge is currently using.

 

 

Hello Time (1~10 sec)

The amount of time between the transmission of

 

Configuration bridge PDUs by this node on any port

 

when it is the root of the spanning tree or trying to

 

become so, in units of a second. This is the actual value

 

that this bridge is currently using.

 

 

Hold Time

This time value determines the interval length during

 

which no more than two Configuration bridge PDUs shall

 

be transmitted by this node, in units of a second.
