Radio port (Radio A)
priority 128 0-255 The preference that STP gives to
this port relative to the other ports
for forwarding traffic out of the
spanning tree.
A higher numerical value means
a lower priority; thus, the highest
priority is 8.
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.
