Configuring Spanning Tree Port Cost
Spanning tree port costs are explained in the following section.
Port cost value calculations are based on the bandwidth of the port. There are two classes of values. Short
(16-bit) values are specified by the IEEE 802.1D specification and range in value from 1 to 65535. Long
(32-bit) values are specified by the IEEE 802.1t specification and range in value from 1 to 200,000,000.
Assigning Short Port Cost Values
You can manually assign port costs in the range of 1 to 65535. Default cost values are listed in
