Figure 12: RSTP System Configuration

Use the RSTP Port Configuration page to configure RSTP attributes for
specific interfaces, including path cost, port priority, edge port (for fast
forwarding), automatic detection of an edge port, and point-to-point link
type.

The following parameters are displayed on the RSTP Port Configuration
page:
Port – Port identifier. (Range: 1-28)
◆
This field is not applicable to static trunks or dynamic trunks created
through LACP. Also, note that only one set of interface configuration
settings can be applied to all trunks.
RSTP Enabled – Enables RSTP on this interface. (Default: Enabled)
◆
◆ Path Cost – This parameter is used by the STA to determine the best
path between devices. Therefore, lower values should be assigned to
ports attached to faster media, and higher values assigned to ports
with slower media. (Path cost takes precedence over port priority.)
