Configuration procedure
Follow these steps to configure the timeout factor:
Enter system view
Configure the timeout factor of the device
Timeout time = timeout factor × 3 × hello time.
Typically, we recommend that you set the timeout factor to 5, or 6, or 7 for a stable network.
Configuration example
# Set the timeout factor to 6.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] stp timer-factor 6

The maximum rate of a port refers to the maximum number of MSTP packets that the port can send
within each hello time. The maximum rate of a port is related to the physical status of the port and the
network structure.
