Parameter | Default | Description |
|
Path Cost | 100/19/4 | This parameter is used by the STA algorithm to | |
|
| determine the best path between devices. Therefore, | |
|
| lower values should be assigned to ports attached to | |
|
| faster media, and higher values assigned to ports with | |
|
| slower media. |
|
|
| The default and recommended range is: | |
|
| Standard Ethernet: | 100 (50~600) |
|
| Fast Ethernet: | 19 (10~60) |
|
| Gigabit Ethernet: | 4 (3~10) |
|
| The full range is 1 - 65535. | |
|
| Note: Path cost takes precedence over port priority. | |
Fast Forward Enabled | This enables/disables Fast Forwarding for the selected | ||
|
| port. In this mode, ports skip the Blocked, Listening and | |
|
| Learning states and proceed straight to Forwarding. Fast | |
|
| Forwarding enables | |
to overcome
