4.5.1.4 Port parameters
This page contains a display window to show the current configuration for each
port. You can select a port then edit it. Click
Modify
to change the port setting
for spanning-tree. The following fields are available:
Instance ID(MSTP Only):
a spanning-tree instance, you can configure
MSTP on your switch to map multiple VLANs into a single STP instance.
Priority:
sets the port priority in the switch. Low numeric value indicates a
high priority. The port with lower priority is more likely to be blocked by STP
if a network loop is detected. The valid value is from 0 to 240.
Path Cost:
the valid value is from 1 to 65535(RSTP:200000000). The higher
cost is more likely to be blocked by STP if a network loop is detected.
Link Type:
By default, the link type is determined from the duplex mode
of the interface: a full-duplex port is considered to have a point-to-point
connection; a half-duplex port is considered to have a shared connection.
Edge Port:
An edge port is the same as a Port Fast-enabled port, and you
should enable it only on ports that connect to a single end station.
