Bridge Priority
This parameter can be from 0 (zero) to 65535, with 0 being the highest
priority. The number consists of a 2-byte bridge priority number and
a 6-byte MAC address. Bridges use this number to determine the root
bridge for a loop-free implementation. If bridges happen to have
equal priority values, the bridge with the numerically lowest MAC
address becomes the root bridge. When the root bridge
malfunctions, the bridge with the next priority number (or the next
lowest MAC address) automatically takes over as root bridge.
