Spanning Tree Switch Configuration
Shown in Figure 24, the panel enables you to configure Spanning Tree globally
on the DES-5600.

Spanning Tree Algorithm
Spanning Tree Algorithm can be enabled or disabled. Use Spanning Tree to
prevent network loops.
Bridge Priority
The Bridge Priority can be from 0 to 65535. Zero is the highest Bridge Priority.
The higher the Bridge Priority the greater the chance that the DES-5600 will be
selected as the Root Bridge. The DES-5600 with the highest Bridge Priority is the
Root Bridge.
Root Cost
The Root Cost is the number of times a packet is regenerated before reaching its
destination. A source sends a packet to the first device (switch or hub) on the
