Figure 82 MSTP Menu

Menu selections 1 to 8 are described below. Selections C, M, V, and
P are described in later sections in this chapter.

3. Adjust the MSTP settings as needed. The selections are described

below.

1 - Force Version
This selection determines whether the bridge operates with MSTP
or in an STP-compatible mode. If you select MSTP, the bridge
operates all ports in MSTP, except for those ports that receive STP
or RSTP BPDU packets. If you select Force STP Compatible, the
bridge uses its MSTP parameter settings, but sends only STP BPDU
packets from the ports.

2 - Hello Time
The time interval between generating and sending configuration
messages by the bridge. The range of this parameter is 1 to 10
seconds. The default is 2 seconds. This value is active only if the
bridge is selected as the root bridge of the network.
