Spanning Tree Group Displays the numeric identifier of the Spanning Tree Group.

State Shows if Spanning Tree is turned on or off for the port.

Bridge Priority Controls which bridge on the network will become the STP root bridge.

This command does not apply to MSTP.

Bridge Hello Time Specifies, in seconds, how often the root bridge transmits a configuration bridge

protocol data unit (BPDU). Any bridge that is not the root bridge uses the root

bridge hello value.

This command does not apply to MSTP.

Bridge Max Age Specifies, in seconds, the maximum time the bridge waits without receiving a

configuration bridge protocol data unit before it reconfigures the STP network. If the

bridge is not the root bridge, it uses the MaxAge value of the root bridge.

This command does not apply to MSTP.

Bridge Forward Delay Specifies, in seconds, the amount of time that a bridge port has to wait before it

changes from learning state to forwarding state. If the bridge is not the root bridge,

it uses the Forward Delay value of the root bridge.

This command does not apply to MSTP.

Bridge Aging Time Specifies, in seconds, the amount of time the bridge waits without receiving a

packet from a station before removing the station from the Forwarding Database.
