Configuring the DRB priority of a TRILL port

On a broadcast network, TRILL must elect a DRB. An RB with a higher DRB priority is preferred. When two
RBs have the same DRB priority, the RB with a higher MAC address takes precedence.
To configure the DRB priority of a TRILL port:
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Enter Layer 2 Ethernet or
aggregate interface
view.
3.
Configure the DRB
priority of a TRILL port.

Setting the link cost for a TRILL port

The link cost of a TRILL port can be automatically calculated by the system or manually set:
A manually set link cost takes precedence over a calculated link cost.
If no link cost is set and automatic link cost calculation is enabled, the calculated link cost takes
effect.
If no link cost is set and automatic link cost calculation is disabled, the default link cost 2000 is
used.
The system automatically calculates the link cost of a TRILL port by using the following formula: link cost
= 20000000000000/interface baud rate.
To set the link cost for a TRILL port:
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Enter TRILL view.
3.
Enable automatic link cost
calculation for TRILL ports.
4.
Return to system view.
5.
Enter Layer 2 Ethernet
interface view or Layer 2
aggregate interface view.
6.
Configure the link cost for a
TRILL port.
