Command Usage
This command defines the priority for the use of an interface in the
multiple spanning-tree. If the path cost for all interfaces on a switch
are the same, the interface with the highest priority (that is, lowest
value) will be configured as an active link in the spanning tree.
Where more than one interface is assigned the highest priority, the
interface with lowest numeric identifier will be enabled.

Console(config)#interface ethernet ethernet 1/5
Console(config-if)#spanning-tree mst 1 cost 50
Console(config-if)#
Console(config)#interface ethernet ethernet 1/5
Console(config-if)#spanning-tree mst 1 port-priority 0
