Spanning Tree Port Configuration

Configuration of a port for (Rapid) Spanning Tree
Note
(R)STP cannot be enabled on the ring ports and the standby ports.
If you click on a port name in the "Port" column of the "Spanning Tree Port Parameters"
page, you open the "Spanning Tree Port Configuration" page:
Figure 4-86
Port
The "Port" display box shows the selected port.
(R)STP enabled
Enable this check box, if you want the port to use the (rapid) spanning tree protocol.
Admin Edge Port
Enable this option when there is an end device on this port. Otherwise a reconfiguration of
the network will be triggered whenever a link to this port is modified.
Auto Edge Port
Enable this option if you want an end device connected to this port to be detected
automatically.
This option is useful in conjunction with passive listening because if the main link fails,
reconfiguration is faster (see operating instructions of the relevant IE switch).
Priority
Enter a value for the port priority in the "Priority" input box.
Permitted values: 0 to 255
Admin Path Cost
Here, the values for the past costs to be used per port can be set manually.
