These parameters are displayed:
STA Bridges
MSTI – The Bridge Instance. This is also a link to the STP Detailed
◆
Bridge Status.
Bridge ID – A unique identifier for this bridge, consisting of the bridge
◆
priority, and MAC address (where the address is taken from the switch
system).
◆ Root ID – The priority and MAC address of the device in the Spanning
Tree that this switch has been accepted as the root device.
Root Port – The number of the port on this switch that is closest to the
◆
root. This switch communicates with the root device through this port.
If there is no root port, then this switch has been accepted as the root
device of the Spanning Tree network.
◆ Root Cost – The path cost from the root port on this switch to the root
device. For the root bridge this is zero. For all other bridges, it is the
sum of the port path costs on the least cost path to the root bridge.
Topology Flag – The current state of the Topology Change Notification
◆
flag (TCN) for this bridge instance.
Topology Change Last – Time since the Spanning Tree was last
◆
reconfigured.
STP Detailed Bridge Status – Click on a bridge instance under the MSTI
field to display detailed information on the selected entry. The following
additional information is displayed.
Bridge Instance – The Bridge instance - CIST, MST1, ...
◆
Regional Root – The Bridge ID of the currently elected regional root
◆
bridge, inside the MSTP region of this bridge. (This parameter only
applies to the CIST instance.)
