Bridge priority provides a way to control the topology of the Spanning Tree Protocol
(STP) connected network. The desired root and designated bridges can be configured
for a particular topology. The bridge with the lowest priority will become the root. In the
event of a failure of the root bridge, the bridge with the next lowest priority will then
become the root. Designated bridges that (for redundancy purposes) service a common
Local Area Network (LAN) also use priority to determine which bridge is active. In this
way, careful selection of bridge priorities can establish the path of traffic flows in normal
and abnormal conditions.
