The cost of using the port to

reach the root bridge. When

 

 

 

 

 

selecting among multiple links to

 

 

 

 

 

the root bridge, STP chooses the

 

 

 

 

 

link with the lowest path cost and

 

 

 

 

 

blocks the other paths. Each port

 

 

 

 

 

type has its own default STP path

 

 

 

 

 

cost.

this port relative to the other ports

 

 

 

 

 

for forwarding traffic out of the

 

 

 

 

 

spanning tree.

The Radio and Ethernet interfaces are assigned to bridge group by default. When the user enables STP and assigns a priority on bridge, STP is enabled on the radio and Ethernet interfaces. The interfaces adopt the priority assigned to bridge.

The user can edit the STP Priority, Bridge Max age, Bridge hello time, Forward Delay, STP Port priority and STP Port Path cost.

The Transparent Aging Time determines the time to refresh entries in the Forwarding Table. The Transparent Aging Time default value is 300 seconds.

Follow the steps below to configure the bridge STP for device in Root Bridge or Remote Bridge:

1.Click on Networking Bridge Configuration to access the Bridge Configuration page.

2.Choose Enable from the Spanning Tree Protocol pull down list.

3.Click on the Generic Bridge Port Table link to change the Generic Parameters.

4.Enter a value for the STP Priority.

5.Enter values for the Bridge Max Age, Bridge Hello Time and Bridge Forward Delay

6.Click on Transparent Aging Time link to change the Transparent Aging Time.

7.Click on the Spanning Tree Port Table link to change the ’STP Ethernet Port’ parameters.

8.Enter the values of Ethernet Port Priority and/or Port Path Cost for ETH A

9.Enter the values of Ethernet Port Priority and/or Port Path Cost for ETH B
