•
STP Root Cost Read only. States the switch to root bridge
path cost.
•
STP Max. Age The maximum age of STP information
learned from the netwrok on any port before it is discarded.
•
STP Hello Time The amount of time between the
tranmission of PDUs by this node on any port when it is the
root of the spanning tree or trying to become so.
•
STP Forward Delay This time value controls how much
time is used when a port changes its spanning state while
moving towards the forwarding state. Before preceding to
the forwarding state, this value determines how long the
port stays in both the listening and learning states. This
value is also used to age all dynamic entries in the
forwarding database when a topology change has been
detectd and is underway.
•
STP Hold Time Read only. States the amount of time
during which no more than 2 BPDUs may be transmitted.
•
Group STP Operation Mode Enable or disable the STP
function.
•
STP Bridge Priority Specifies the priority of the switch.
A low priority (smaller number value) increases the
likelihood that the switch will become the STP root bridge.
A high priority (larger number value) decreases the
likelihood that the switch will become the STP root bridge.
•
STP Bridge Max. Age Specifies, in seconds, the amount
of time that all bridges in the spanning tree will use for max.
age when this bridge is acting as the root for the spanning
tree. The setting range is between 6 and 40 seconds.
•
STP Bridge Hello Time Specifies, in seconds, the amount
of time that all bridges in the spanning tree will use for
hello time when this bridge is acting as the root for the
spanning tree. The setting range is between 1 and 10
seconds.
•
STP Bridge Forward Delay Specifies, in seconds, the
amount of time that all bridges in the spanning tree will use
for forward delay when this bridge is acting as the root for
the spanning tree. The setting range is between 4 and 30
seconds.
