DESCRIPTION
Priority is used in determining the root switch, root port and designated
port. The switch with the highest priority (lowest numeric value)
becomes the STP root switch. If all switches have the same priority, the
switch with the lowest MAC address will then become the root switch.
Enter a value from 0~61440.
The lower the numeric value you assign, the higher the priority for this
bridge.
Priority determines the root bridge, which in turn determines the Root
Hello Time, Root Maximum Age and Root Forwarding Delay.
Path cost is the cost of transmitting a frame on to a LAN through that
port. It is recommended to assign this value according to the speed of
the bridge. The slower the media, the higher the cost.

DESCRIPTION
This is the MAC address of the root bridge.
Root refers to the base of the spanning tree (the root bridge). This
field displays the root bridge's priority. This Switch may also be the root
bridge.
This is the maximum time (in seconds) the Switch can wait without
receiving a configuration message before attempting to reconfigure.
