Priority (0-65535) — Specifies the bridge priority value. When switches or bridges are running STP, each is
assigned a priority. After exchanging BPDUs, the device with the lowest priority value becomes the Root
Bridge. The default value is 32768. The port priority value is provided in increments of 4096.
•
Hello Time (1-10) — Specifies the device Hello Time. The Hello Time indicates the amount of time in sec-
onds a Root Bridge waits between configuration messages. The default is 2 seconds.
•
Max Age (6-40) — Specifies the device Maximum Age Time. The Maximum Age Time is the amount of time
in seconds a bridge waits before sending configuration messages. The default Maximum Age Time is
20 seconds.
•
Forward Delay (4-30) — Specifies the device Forward Delay Time. The Forward Delay Time is the amount of
time in seconds a bridge remains in a listening and learning state before forwarding packets. The default is 15
