is, listening to learning to forwarding).

Cost to Bridge

This is the path cost from the root port on this Switch to the root switch.

Port ID

This is the priority and number of the port on the Switch through which this Switch

must communicate with the root of the Spanning Tree.

Configuration

Name

This field displays the configuration name for this MST region.

Revision Number

This field displays the revision number for this MST region.

Configuration

Digest
