2*(hello+1) ≤ mxage
Spanning Tree port configuration

[Spanning Tree Port 1 Menu]
By default for STP/PVST+, Spanning tree is turned Off for downlink ports (1-16), and turned On for cross-
connect ports (17), and uplink ports (19-25). By default for RSTP/MSTP, Spanning tree is turned On for all
downlink ports (1-16), cross-connect ports (17), and all uplink ports (19-25), with downlink ports
configured as Edge ports.
Spanning tree port parameters are used to modify STP operation on an individual port basis. STP port
parameters include:
Port priority
Port path cost
Description
Configures the bridge forward delay parameter. The forward delay parameter specifies
the amount of time that a bridge port has to wait before it changes from the listening state
to the learning state and from the learning state to the forwarding state. The range is 4 to
30 seconds, and the default is 15 seconds.
This command does not apply to MSTP. See the "Common Internal Spanning Tree
configuration" section for more information.
