The STP port priority influences the choice of port when the bridge has two
ports connected to the same LAN, creating a loop. The port with the lowest
port priority will be the one used by the Spanning Tree Protocol.
Port priority is a 1-octet value.
To configure the port priority:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
bridge port stpPriority
You are prompted for the port type.
2 Enter
Ethernet
You are prompted for the port number(s).
3 Enter the number(s) of the port(s) or
all ports on each bridge.
You are prompted for the port priority for each port you specified.
4 Enter the port priority for the port(s).
The following example shows values being set for more than one port:
Ethernet port 3 - Enter new value [0x80]:
Ethernet port 4 - Enter new value [0x80]:
If your configuration was successful, you return to the previous menu. If the
configuration was not successful, you are notified that your changes failed,
and you can try to re-enter those changes.
