ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes

1.Switch A bridge ID = 8000:00A0:C511:1111, Switch B bridge ID = 8000:00A0:C522:2222, Switch C bridge ID = 0001:00A0:C533:3333. Switch C has the lowest bridge ID, so Switch C is the root bridge. All ports of the root bridge are designated ports, so Port 1 is designated port.

2.For non-root bridge Switch A, Port 1 path cost to root bridge is 19, Port 2 path cost is 119, 100 (Switch A Port 2) + 19 (Switch B Port 1). For Switch B, Port 1 path cost is 19, Port 2 path cost is 119. Root port = Port 1 of Switch A and Switch B because it has the lowest path cost to the root bridge Switch C.

3.On Segment A, both Port 2 of Switch A and Switch B have the same path cost to root bridge. Since Switch A has lower bridge ID than Switch B, the designated port is selected on Switch A. So Port 2 of Switch A is designated port.

Blocking = Port 2 of Switch B, the non designated port on the segment. Forwarding = All designated ports and root ports.
