Port STP
Figure 7-13.
Port Spanning Tree Configurations window
The information on the window is described as follows:
STP State
The Spanning Tree Protocol state for a selected port can either be
Enabled
or
Disabled
.
Cost(1~65535)
The Path Cost is a changeable parameter and may be modified according to the
Spanning Tree Algorithm specification.
Priority(0~255)
The read-write object displays the priority number of the port. The value is used in
conjunction with the physical port number to set the port ID, which in turn is used when determining
the root port of the bridge. The smaller the number set, the higher the port priority is. The higher the
port priority, the more chances the port has of becoming the root port. Port priority ranges from 0 to
255, with 0 being the highest port priority.
Configure Filtering and Forwarding Table
Address Setup
The
Address Setup
window lets you stop or restart MAC address learning, adjust address table size, and
control how long learned addresses are retained in the table.
