configuration message), a new root port is selected from among the device ports
attached to the network. (References to “ports” in this section means “interfaces,”
which includes both ports and trunks.)

Root Forward Delay – The maximum time (in seconds) this device will wait before

changing states (i.e., discarding to learning to forwarding). This delay is required
because every device must receive information about topology changes before it
starts to forward frames. In addition, each port needs time to listen for conflicting
information that would make it return to a discarding state; otherwise, temporary
data loops might result.

Transmission limit – The minimum interval between the transmission of

consecutive RSTP/MSTP BPDUs.

Path Cost Method – The path cost is used to determine the best path between

devices. The path cost method is used to determine the range of values that can
be assigned to each interface.
