Using the Command Line Interface
Default Setting
32768
Command Mode
Global Configuration
Command Usage
Bridge priority is used in selecting the root device, root port, and designated
port. The device with the highest priority becomes the STP root device.
However, if all devices have the same priority, the device with the lowest
MAC address will then become the root device.
Example
bridge-link path-cost
Use this command to configure the spanning tree path cost for the specified port.
Syntax
bridge-link path-cost
<
index
> <
cost>
index
- Specifies the bridge link number on the wireless bridge. (Range:
1-6 required on wireless interface only)
cost
- The path cost for the port. (Range: 1-65535)
Default Setting
19
Command Mode
Interface Configuration
Command Usage
This command is used by the Spanning Tree Protocol to determine the best
path between devices. Therefore, lower values should be assigned to ports
attached to faster media, and higher values assigned to ports with slower
media.
Path cost takes precedence over port priority.
Example
Enterprise AP(config)#bridge stp-bridge priority 40000
Enterprise AP(config)#
Enterprise AP(if-wireless a)#bridge-link path-cost 1 50
Enterprise AP(if-wireless a)#
