| LABEL | DESCRIPTION |
| Bridge Priority | Enter a number between 0 and 61440 as bridge priority of the ZyWALL. |
|
| Bridge priority is used in determining the root switch, root port and |
|
| designated port. The switch with the highest priority (lowest numeric value) |
|
| becomes the root. If multiple devices have the lowest priority, the device |
|
| with the lowest MAC address becomes the root. |
|
| The lower the numeric value you assign, the higher the priority for this |
|
| bridge. |
|
| Bridge Priority determines the root bridge, which in turn determines Hello |
|
| Time, Max Age and Forward Delay. |
|
|
|
| Bridge Hello Time | Enter an interval (between 1 and 10) in seconds that the root bridge |
|
| waits before sending a hello packet. |
| Bridge Max Age | Enter an interval (between 6 and 40) in seconds that a bridge waits to |
|
| get a Hello BPDU from the root bridge. |
|
|
|
| Forward Delay | Enter the length of time (between 4 and 30) in seconds that a bridge |
|
| remains in the listening and learning port states. The default is 15 seconds. |
|
|
|
| Bridge Port | This is the bridge port type. |
|
|
|
| RSTP Active | Select the check box to enable RSTP on the corresponding port. |
|
|
|
| RSTP Priority | Enter a number between 0 and 240 as RSTP priority for the corresponding |
| 0(Highest)~240(Lowest) | port. 0 is the highest. |
|
|
|
| RSTP Path Cost | Enter a number between 1 and 65535 as RSTP path cost for the |
| 1(Lowest)~65535(Highe | corresponding port. 65535 is the highest. |

7.4 Bridge Port Roles
Use the Port Roles screen to set ports as part of the LAN, DMZ and/or WLAN interface. Ports 1~4 on the ZyWALL can be part of the LAN, DMZ or WLAN interface.
To change your ZyWALL’s port role settings, click NETWORK > BRIDGE > Port Roles. The screen appears as shown.
The radio buttons correspond to Ethernet ports on the front panel of the ZyWALL. On the ZyWALL, ports 1 to 4 are all LAN ports by default.
