Forward Delay – The maximum time (in seconds) the root device
will wait before changing states (i.e., listening to learning to
forwarding). This delay is required because every device must receive
information about topology changes before it starts to forward frames.
In addition, each port needs time to listen f or conflicting information
that would make it return to a blocking state; ot herwise, temporary data
loops might result.
