Priority: the port priority in the switch. Low numeric value indicates a high
priority. The port with lower priority is more likely to be blocked by STP if a
network loop is detected. The valid value is from 0 to -240.
Cost: the valid value is from 1 to200000000. The higher cost is more likely
to be blocked by STP if a network loop is detected.
Edge Port: All ports are set to be edge ports by default. Edge port becomes
STP port when BPDU is received. Also, it takes very short time for an edge
port to be in forwarding state.
Point to Point: Auto/Yes/No. A full duplex link is considered as a point to
point link. Otherwise, it is a shared link. Point to point link may have less
convergence time. Auto is recommended in most cases.
Click on OK to make the setting effective immediately. Click on Reload to
