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 end-node workstations and servers

to overcome time-out problems when the Spanning Tree

Algorithm is implemented in a network. Therefore, Fast

Forwarding should only be enabled for ports that are

connected to an end-node device.
