6.3 Spanning Tree Setting

This page allows you to modify the Spanning Tree settings. Enabling Spanning Tree

protocol will prevent network loops in your LAN network.

Spanning Tree

Status

Enable or disable the Spanning Tree function.

Bridge Hello Time Specify Bridge Hello Time, in seconds. This value determines how

often the device sends handshake packets to communicate

information about the topology throughout the entire Bridged Local

Area Network.

Bridge Max Age Specify Bridge Max Age, in seconds. If another bridge in the spanning

tree does not send a hello packet for a long period of time, it is

assumed to be dead.

Bridge Forward

Delay

Specify Bridge Forward Delay, in seconds. Forwarding delay time is the

time spent in each of the Listening and Learning states before the

Forwarding state is entered. This delay is provided so that when a new

bridge comes onto a busy network, it analyzes data traffic before

participating.

Priority Specify the Priority Number. A smaller number has greater priority.

Accept / Cancel Click Accept to confirm the changes or Cancel to cancel and return

previous settings.
