Max Hops (1-20)
Used to set the number of hops between devices in a spanning tree region before the
BPDU (bridge protocol data unit) packet sent by the Switch will be discarded. Each switch
on the hop count will reduce the hop count by one until the value reaches zero. The Switch
will then discard the BPDU packet and the information held for the port will age out. The
user may set a hop count from
1
to
20
. The default is
20
.
TX Hold Count (1-10)
Used to set the maximum number of Hello packets transmitted per interval. The count can
be specified from
1
to
10
. The default is
3
.
Forwarding BPDU
This field can be
Enabled
or
Disabled.
When
Enabled,
it allows the forwarding of STP
BPDU packets from other network devices. The default is
Enabled
.
Loopback Detection
When enabled, the Switch will temporarily block STP switch-wide when a BPDU packet
has looped back. If the Switch detects its own BPDU packet coming back, it signifies a loop
on the network – STP is automatically blocked and an alert is sent to the administrator. The
default is
Enabled
.
LBD Recover Time
Time allowed (in seconds) for recovery when an STP Loopback is detected. After the timer
has expired the Switch checks for an STP loopback, if no loopback detected, STP is
resumed. Entering 0 will disable LBD recovery.
