Note: The Hello Time cannot be longer than the Max. Age. Otherwise, a
configuration error will occur.
Observe the following formulas when setting the above parameters:

STP Port Settings

For stacked switch installations, first select the Unit to be configured.
The Forward Delay can be from 4 to 30 seconds. This is the time any port
on the Switch spends in the listening state while moving from the blocking
state to the forwarding state.
A Priority for the Switch can be set from 0 to 61440. This number is used
in the voting process between switches on the network to determine which
switch will be the root switch. A low number indicates a high priority, and a
high probability that this switch will be elected as the root switch.
Choose RSTP (default) or STP Compatibility. Both versions use STP
parameters in the same way. RSTP is fully compatible with IEEE 802.1d
STP and will function with legacy equipment.
This is the maximum number of Hello packets transmitted per interval. The
count can be specified from 1 to 10. Default value = 3.
This field can be enabled or disabled. When it is Enabled it allows the
forwarding of STP BPDU packets from other network devices when STP is
disabled on the Switch. The default is Enabled.
Max. Age ≤ 2 x (Forward Delay - 1 second)
Max. Age ≥ 2 x (Hello Time + 1 second)
