You can also specify that a bridge is the root or the secondary root. To change the bridge priority or specify that a bridge is the root or secondary root, use the following command. • Assign a number as the bridge priority or designate it as the root or secondary root. PROTOCOL SPANNING TREE mode bridge-priority {priority-value | primary | secondary} - priority-value: the range is from 0 to 65535. The lower the number assigned, the more likely this bridge becomes the root bridge. The primary option specifies a bridge priority of 8192. The secondary option specifies a bridge priority of 16384. The default is 32768. Example of Viewing STP Root Information To view only the root information, use the show spanning-tree root command from EXEC privilege mode.
