Specifying the bridge forward delay for all xSTP

For any spanning tree mode (STP, RSTP, MSTP, PVST, or Rapid PVST), use this procedure to specify
how long an interface remains in the listening and learning states before the interface begins
forwarding all spanning tree instances.

The range is 4 through 30 seconds. The default is 15 seconds. The following relationship should be
kept:

2*(forward_delay - 1)>=max_age>=2*(hello_time + 1)

To specify the bridge forward delay, perform the following steps.

1. Issue the RPC to configure the node in the

urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-interface namespace.

2. Under the node, include the node from the

urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-xstp namespace.

3. Under the node, include the , , , , or node

element.

4. Under the , , , , or node, include the leaf

element, and specify the bridge forward delay.
