Release K.12.04 Enhancements
Syntax: spanning-tree < port-list > < hello-time | path-cost | point-to-point-mac | priority >
[hello-time < global | 1 - 10 >
When the switch is the CIST root, this parameter specifies the interval (in
seconds) between periodic BPDU transmissions by the designated ports. This
interval also applies to all ports in all switches downstream from each port in
the < port-list >. A setting of global indicates that the ports in < port-list > on the
CIST root are using the value set by the global spanning-tree hello-time value.
When a given switch "X" is not the CIST root, the per-port hello-time for all active
ports on switch "X" is propagated from the CIST root, and is the same as the
hello-time in use on the CIST root port in the currently active path from switch
"X" to the CIST root. (That is, when switch "X" is not the CIST root, then the
upstream CIST root's port hello-time setting overrides the hello-time setting
configured on switch "X". (Default Per-Port setting: Use Global. Default Global
Hello-Time: 2.)
[path-cost < auto | 1.200000000 >]
Assigns an individual port cost that the switch uses to determine which ports
are forwarding ports in a given spanning tree. In the default configuration
(auto) the switch determines a port's path cost by the port's type:
– 10 Mbps: 2000000
– 100 Mbps: 200000
– 1 Gbps: 20000
point-to-point-mac <true | false | auto >
This parameter informs the switch of the type of device to which a specific port
connects.
True (default): Indicates a point-to-point link to a device such as a switch,
bridge, or end-node.
False: Indicates a connection to a hub (which is a shared LAN segment).
Auto: Causes the switch to set False on the port if it is not running at full duplex.
(Connections to hubs are half-duplex.)
