The following entries are displayed on this screen:
Global Config
STP: Enable/Disable STP function.
Version: Select the desired STP version.
„
STP: Spanning Tree Protocol.
„
RSTP: Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol.
„
MSTP: Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol.
Parameters Config
CIST Priority:
Enter a value from 0 to 61440 to specify the priority of the Switch for
comparison in the CIST. CIST priority is important in determining which Switch
will be the Root Bridge. The Switch with the highest priority will be chosen as
the Root Bridge. The lower value the higher priority. The default value is 32768
any value used must be evenly divisible by 4096.
Hello Time Enter a value from 1-10 seconds to specify the interval to send BPDU packets.
BPDUs used to test the links for Network loops. The default value is 2 seconds.
Max Age: Enter a value from 6-40 seconds to specify the maximum time the Switch can
wait without receiving a BPDU before attempting to reconfigure. The default
value is 20 seconds. If adjusting the Max Age the following Rules should be
applied: 2*(Hello Time + 1) ≤ Max Age, and 2*(Forward Delay-1) ≥ Max Age.
Forward
Delay: Enter a value from 4-30 seconds to specify the time for the Port to transit its
state after the Network topology has changed. The default value is 15 seconds.
TxHold Count: Enter a value from 1-20 to set the maximum number of BPDU packets
transmitted per Hello Time interval. The default value is 5pps.
Max Hops: Enter a value from 1-40 to set the maximum number of hops that can occur in
a specific region before the BPDU is discarded. The default value is 20 hops.
CAUTION: STP Config settings will be restored to defaults if the Switch
is restarted and you have not selected Save Config from the
main menu and saved your running configuration to non-
volatile memory.
CAUTION: It is not recommended to change the Parameter settings
without first consulting a Network Administrator with advanced
understanding of Spanning Tree functions.
