State: indicates the STP state of individual ports. Values can be Listening, Learning, Forwarding,
Blocking and Disabled.

Des. Bridge: this is the port’s designated root bridge

Des. Port: this is the port’s designated root port

Another screen capture of the same command, from a larger network with several switches is

82 – RSTP information from a network with multiple switches. Note the “show stp ports” command

can be executed from the manager level prompt or from rstp configuration state as shown in the screen captures
earlier.

In this example, ports 9,10 have a path cost of 20,000 and are the least cost paths. These ports are
connected to other switches and the ports are enabled as forwarding ports. Ports 6, 7 are also
