Syntax
spanning-tree vlan vlan-id priority priority value
Parameters priority priority value — Enter a bridge-priority value in increments of 4096 (0 to 61440). Valid priority
values are: 0, 4096, 8192, 12288, 16384, 20480, 24576, 28672, 32768, 36864, 40960, 45056, 49152, 53248, 57344,

Command Mode CONFIGURATION
Usage Information The RPVST+ protocol determines the root bridge but you can assign one bridge a lower priority to increase the
probability it being the root bridge. A lower priority value increases the probability of the bridge becoming a
root bridge.
Example
OS10(config)# spanning-tree vlan 10 priority 0
Supported Releases 10.2.0E or later
spanning-tree vlan priority (Interface)

Default 128
Command Mode INTERFACE
