DESCRIPTION
This field displays Running if STP is activated. Otherwise, it displays Down.
Click Configuration to configure STP settings. Refer to

Root refers to the base of the spanning tree (the root bridge). Our Bridge is this
switch. This switch may also be the root bridge.
This is the unique identifier for this bridge, consisting of bridge priority plus MAC
address. This ID is the same for Root and Our Bridge if the switch is the root
switch.
This is the time interval (in seconds) at which the root switch transmits a
configuration message. The root bridge determines Hello Time, Max Age and
Forwarding Delay
This is the maximum time (in seconds) a switch can wait without receiving a
configuration message before attempting to reconfigure.
This is the time (in seconds) the root switch will wait before changing states (that
is, listening to learning to forwarding).
This is the path cost from the root port on this switch to the root switch.
This is the priority and number of the port on the switch through which this switch
must communicate with the root of the Spanning Tree.
