configurable	the switch’s MAC address.
except by setting priority	The Bridge Identifier consists of two parts:
below)	a 16-bit priority and a 48-bit Ethernet MAC
	address 32768 + MAC
Priority	A relative priority for each switch – lower	32768
	numbers give a higher priority and a greater
	chance of a given switch being elected as
	the root bridge
Hello Time	The length of time between broadcasts of	2 seconds
	the hello message by the switch
Maximum Age Timer	Measures the age of a received BPDU for a	20 seconds
	port and ensures that the BPDU is discarded
	when its age exceeds the value of the
	maximum age timer.
Forward Delay Timer	The amount time spent by a port in the	15 seconds
	learning and listening states waiting for a
	BPDU that may return the port to the
	blocking state.

The following are the user-configurable STP parameters for the port or port group level:

Variable	Description	Default Value
Port Priority	A relative priority for each	32768
	port –lower numbers give a higher priority
	and a greater chance of a given port being
	elected as the root port
Port Cost	A value used by STP to evaluate paths –	19-100Mbps Fast Ethernet ports
	STP calculates path costs and selects the	4-1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet ports
	path with the minimum cost as the active
	path

User-Changeable STA Parameters

The Switch’s factory default setting should cover the majority of installations. However, it is advisable to keep the default settings as set at the factory; unless, it is absolutely necessary. The user changeable
