Table 3-2 Spanning Tree Protocol Settings
Field Description
Spanning Tree Protocol
(STP)
From the list, select one of the following:
• Enable—Use this setting to enable STP on the
bridge.
• Disable—If you do not want STP enabled the
bridge.
Root Configuration
Priority (0-65535) Enter a number to influence which bridge is
designated the root bridge in the spanning tree.
When bridges have the same priority setting, STP
uses the bridges’ MAC addresses as a tiebreaker.
The bridge with the lowest priority setting is likely
to be designated the root bridge in the tree.
Max Age (6-40 Seconds) Enter the number of seconds to define how long the
bridge waits before deciding the network has
changed and the spanning tree needs to be rebuilt.
For example, with Max Age set to 20, the bridge
attempts to rebuild the spanning tree if it does not
receive a hello BDPU from the root bridge in the
spanning tree within 20 seconds.
Hello Time (1-10
Seconds)
Enter the number of seconds to define how often the
root bridge in the spanning tree sends out a hello
BPDU telling the other bridges that the network
topology has not changed and that the spanning tree
should remain the same.
