Max Age (6-40):

The number of seconds a switch waits without receiving Spanning-tree Protocol

configuration messages before attempting a reconfiguration.

Enter a value between 6 through 40.

Hello Time (1-10):

The time that controls the switch to send out the BPDU packet to check STP

current status.

Enter a value between 1 through 10.

Forward Delay Time

(4-30):

The number of seconds a port waits before changing from its Rapid

Spanning-Tree Protocol learning and listening states to the forwarding state.

Enter a value between 4 through 30.

Follow the rule as below to configure the MAX Age, Hello Time, and Forward Delay Time.

2 x (Forward Delay Time value –1) > = Max Age value >= 2 x (Hello Time value +1).

Each switch in a spanning-tree adopts the Hello Time, Forward Delay time, and Max Age

parameters of the root bridge, regardless of how it is configured.
