| Spanning Tree Commands
– 191
Command Usage
This command is used by the Spanning Tree Protocol to determine the best
path between devices. Therefore, lower values should be assigned to interfaces
with faster media, and higher values assigned to interfaces with slower media.
Path cost takes precedence over port priority.
Example
AP(stp-if-wireless 0: VAP[0])# path-cost 512
AP(stp-if-wireless 0: VAP[0])#
port-priority (STP
Interface)
This command sets the spanning tree path cost for the VAP interface.
Syntax
port-priority <priority>
priority - The priority for the VAP interface. (Range: 0-63)
Command Mode
Global Configuration (STP interface)
Command Usage
This command defines the priority for the use of an interface in the Spanning
Tree Protocol. If the path cost for all interfaces on a bridge are the same, the
interface with the highest priority (that is, lowest value) will be configured as an
active link in the spanning tree.
Where more than one interface is assigned the highest priority, the interface
with lowest numeric identifier will be enabled.
Example
AP(stp-if-wireless 0: VAP[0])# port-priority 10
AP(stp-if-wireless 0: VAP[0])#
bridge mac-aging This command sets the MAC address table aging time.
Syntax
bridge mac-aging <aging-time>
aging-time - The time after which a learned MAC address is discarded.
(Range: 10-1000000 seconds)
Default
300 seconds
