Item 
Description 
State 
Enable/disable the STP on the switch. 
Operation Mode 
Specify the STP operation mode. 
  STP: Enable the Spanning Tree (STP) operation. 
  RSTP: Enable the Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP) operation. 
  MSTP: Enable the Multiple Spanning Tree (MSTP) operation. 
Path Cost 
Specify the path cost method. 
  Long: Specifies that the default port path costs are within the 
range: 1-200,000,000. 
  Short: Specifies that the default port path costs are within the 
range: 1-65,535. 
BPDU Handling 
Specify the BPDU forward method when the STP is disabled. 
  Filtering: Filter the BPDU when STP is disabled. 
  Flooding: Flood the BPDU when STP is disabled. 
Priority 
Specify the bridge priority. The valid range is from 0 to 61440, and the 
value should be the multiple of 4096. It ensures the probability that the 
switch is selected as the root bridge, and the lower value has the higher 
priority for the switch to be selected as the root bridge of the topology. 
Hello Time 
Specify the STP hello time in second to broadcast its hello message to 
other bridges by Designated Ports. Its valid range is from 1 to 10 
seconds. 
Max Age 
Specify the time interval in seconds for a switch to wait the 
configuration messages, without attempting to redefine its own 
configuration. 
Forward Delay 
Specify the STP forward delay time, which is the amount of time that a 
port remains in the Listening and Learning states before it enters the 
Forwarding state. Its valid range is from 4 to 10 seconds. 
TX Hold Count 
Specify the tx-hold-count used to limit the maximum numbers of 
packets transmission per second. The valid range is from 1 to 10. 
Region Name 
The MSTP instance name. Its maximum length is 32 characters. The 
default value is the MAC address of the switch. 
Revision 
The MSTP revision number. Its valid rage is from 0 to 65535. 
Max Hop 
Specify the number of hops in an MSTP region before the BPDU is 
discarded. The valid range is 1 to 40. 
Operational Status 
Bridge Identifier 
Bridge identifier of the switch. 
Designated Root 
Identifier 
Bridge identifier of the designated root bridge. 
Root Port 
Operational root port of the switch. 
Root Path Cost 
Operational root path cost. 
Topology Change 
Count 
Numbers of the topology changes.
