FIGURE 105
Modifying RSTP parameters
The RSTP parameters contains the following information.
RSTP Bridge Parameters
Forward Delay (Seconds)
The number of seconds this device or VLAN waits following a topology change and
consequent reconvergence.
Maximum Age (Seconds)
The number of seconds this device or VLAN waits for a hello message from the root
bridge before deciding the root has become unavailable and performing a
reconvergence.
Hello Time (Seconds)
The interval between each configuration BPDU sent by the root bridge.
Priority
The preference that STP gives this port relative to other ports for forwarding traffic
out of the spanning tree. A higher numerical value means a lower priority.
Force Version
The configured force version value. One of the following value is displayed:
•
0 – The bridge has been forced to operate in an STP compatibility mode.
•
2 – The bridge has been forced to operate in an 802.1W mode. (This is the
default.)
RSTP Port Parameters
Admin Edge Port
If set to enabled, then the port becomes an edge port in the domain.
Admin Pt2pt Mac
If set to enabled, then a port is connected to another port through a point-to-point
link. The point-to-point link increases the speed of convergence. This parameter,
however, does not auto-detect whether or not the link is a physical point-to-point
link.
