3-4.4 CIST Ports When you implement an Spanning Tree protocol on the switch that the bridge instance. You need to configure the CIST Ports. The section describes it allows the user to inspect the to inspect the current STP CIST port configurations, and possibly change them as well. Web Interface To configure the Spanning Tree CIST Ports parameters in the web interface: 1. Click Configuration, Spanning Tree, CIST Ports 2. Scroll and evoke to set all parameters of CIST Aggregated Port Configuration. 3. Evoke to enable or disable the STP, then scoll and evoke to set all parameters of the CIST normal Port configuration. 4. Click the Apply to Apply the setting 5. If you want to cancel the setting then you need to click the Reset button. It will revert to previously Saved values Figure 3-4.4: The STP CIST Port Configuration Parameter description:  Port : The switch port number of the logical STP port.  STP Enabled : Controls whether STP is enabled on this switch port.  Path Cost : Controls the path cost incurred by the port. The Auto setting will set the path cost as appropriate by the physical link speed, using the 802.1D recommended values. Using the Specific setting, a user-defined value can be entered. The path cost is used when establishing the active topology of the network. Lower 67

The STP CIST Port Configuration
Parameter description:
Port :
The switch port number of the logical STP port.
STP Enabled :
Controls whether STP is enabled on this switch port.
Path Cost :
Controls the path cost incurred by the port. The Auto setting will set the path
cost as appropriate by the physical link speed, using the 802.1D recommended
values. Using the Specific setting, a user-defined value can be entered. The
path cost is used when establishing the active topology of the network. Lower
