Description
The lower the bridge priority is the higher priority it has. Usually, the bridge with the
highest bridge priority is the root. Value: 0 ~ 61440
Hello Time is used to determine the periodic time to send normal BPDU from
designated ports among bridges. It decides how long a bridge should send this
message to other bridge to tell I am alive.
When the switch is the root bridge, the whole LAN will apply this setting as their
maximum age time.
This figure is set by Root Bridge only. The forward delay time is defined as the time
spent from Listening state moved to Learning state and also from Learning state
moved to Forwarding state of a port in bridge.
