Configuring STP related features
The priority parameter specifies the priority of the bridge. You can enter a value from 0 –
65535. A lower numerical value means the bridge has a higher priority. Thus, the highest priority
is 0. The default is 32768.
You can specify some or all of these parameters on the same command line. If you specify more
than one parameter, you must specify them in the order shown above, from left to right.
Changing port parameters
The 802.1W port commands can be enabled on individual ports or on multiple ports, such as all
ports that belong to a VLAN.
The 802.1W port parameters are preconfigured with default values. If the default parameters
meet your network requirements, no other action is required.
You can change the following 802.1W port parameters using the following method.
TurboIron(config)#vlan 10
TurboIron(config-vlan-10)#spanning-tree 802-1w ethernet 5 path-cost 15 priority
64
Syntax: spanning-tree 802-1w ethernet path-cost | priority |
[admin-edge-port] | [admin-pt2pt-mac] | [force-migration-check]
The parameter specifies the interface used.
The path-cost parameter specifies the cost of the port path to the root bridge. 802.1W
prefers the path with the lowest cost. You can specify a value from 1 – 20,000,000.
Table 90
shows the recommended path cost values from the IEEE standards.
The priority parameter specifies the preference that 802.1W gives to this port relative to
other ports for forwarding traffic out of the topology. Y
• You can specify a value from 0 – 240, in increments of 16. If you enter a value that is not
divisible by 16, the software returns an error message. The default value is 128. A higher
numerical value means a lower priority; thus, the highest priority is 0.
Set the admin-edge-port to enabled or disabled. If set to enabled, then the port becomes an edge
port in the domain.
