assignments. Generic parameters are:

ˆ

External path cost

ˆ

Point-to-point port

ˆ

Edge port

An MSTI-specific parameter can be set on a per MSTI basis. This
means that you can assign a different value to a MSTI-specific
parameter for each spanning tree instance where a port is a member.
These parameters are:
