Port Parameters

This procedure explains how to set a port’s priority and internal path cost.
These parameters can be set independently on a port for each MSTI
where a port is a member. To configure the parameters, perform the
following procedure:

1. From the MSTP Menu, type P to select MSTP Port Parameters.

The MSTP Port Parameters menu is shown in Figure 182 on page
536.

2. Type 2 to select Configure Per Spanning Tree Port Settings.

The following prompt is displayed:

Enter Spanning Tree (CIST/MSTI) List :

3. Enter the ID number of the CIST or MSTI containing the VLAN with the

port to be configured is assigned. You can specify more than one ID
number.

You can enter the ID number of an MSTI where the port is not a
member. This allows you to pre-configure the parameter in the event
you later add the port as a member of the MSTI through a VLAN
assignment.
