Bridge Spanning Tree configuration

Command: /cfg/l2/stp/brg
[Bridge Spanning Tree Menu]
Spanning tree bridge parameters can be configured for each Spanning Tree Group. STP bridge
parameters include:
Bridge priority
Bridge hello time
Bridge maximum age
Forwarding delay
Current bridge configuration
The following table describes the Bridge Spanning Tree Configuration Menu options.
Table 111 Bridge Spanning Tree Configuration Menu options
Command
prior <0-65535>
hello <1-10>
mxage <6-40>
Description
Displays current Spanning Tree Protocol parameters.
prior - Set bridge Priority [0-65535]
hello - Set bridge Hello Time [1-10 secs]
mxage - Set bridge Max Age (6-40 secs)
fwd - Set bridge Forward Delay (4-30 secs)
cur - Display current bridge parameters
Description
Configures the bridge priority. The bridge priority parameter controls which bridge on the
network is the STP root bridge.
To make this switch the root bridge, configure the bridge priority lower than all other
switches and bridges on your network. The lower the value, the higher the bridge priority.
The range is 0 to 65535, and the default is 32768.
RSTP/MSTP: The range is 0 to 61440, in steps of 4096 (0, 4096, 8192...), and the
default is 32768.
This command does not apply to MSTP. See the "Common Internal Spanning Tree
configuration" section for more information.
Configures the bridge hello time. The hello time specifies how often the root bridge
transmits a configuration bridge protocol data unit (BPDU).
Any bridge that is not the root bridge uses the root bridge hello value. The range is 1 to
10 seconds, and the default is 2 seconds.
This command does not apply to MSTP. See the "Common Internal Spanning Tree
configuration" section for more information.
Configures the bridge maximum age. The maximum age parameter specifies the
maximum time the bridge waits without receiving a configuration bridge protocol data
unit before it reconfigures the STP network. The range is 6 to 40 seconds, and the default
is 20 seconds.
This command does not apply to MSTP. See the "Common Internal Spanning Tree
configuration" section for more information.
