NOTE:

When calculating path cost for an aggregate interface, IEEE 802.1t takes into account the number of
selected ports in its aggregation group, but IEEE 802.1d-1998 does not. The calculation formula of IEEE

802.1t is: Path Cost = 200,000,000/link speed (in 100 kbps), where link speed is the sum of the link
speed values of the selected ports in the aggregation group.

Configuring path costs of ports

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Enter interface view or port

group view.

Enter Ethernet interface view:

interface interface-type

interface-number

Enter port group view:

port-group manual

port-group-name

Use either command.

3.

Configure the path cost of the

ports.

In STP/RSTP mode:
stp cost cost

In MSTP mode:

stp [ instance instance-id ] cost
cost

Use either command.
By default, the system

automatically calculates the
path cost of each port.

NOTE:

When the path cost of a port changes, the system re-calculates the role of the port and initiates a state
transition.

Configuration example

# In MSTP mode, specify the device to calculate the default path costs of its ports by using IEEE
802.1d-1998, and set the path cost of GigabitEthernet 1/0/3 to 200 on MSTI 2.
