Port Settings

In the Port Settings page, you can specify spanning tree parameters for each
port. This page is in a table format. For each port number listed under the
Port column, the following fields are available:
• Priority — Assigned to this port for the Spanning Tree Protocol (0 -
255). A port with a higher priority is less likely to be blocked if the
Spanning Tree Protocol is detecting network loops. Low numeric value
indicates a high priority.
