connected to two or more bridges.

When automatic detection is selected, the switch derives the link type from the duplex mode. A full-duplex interface is

considered a point-to-point link, while a half-duplex interface is assumed to be on a shared link.

RSTP only works on point-to-point links between two bridges. If you designate a port as a shared link, RSTP is forbidden.

Since MSTP is an extension of RSTP, this same restriction applies.

Example

Console(config)#interface ethernet ethernet 1/5

Console(config-if)#spanning-tree link-type point-to-point

Console(config-if)#

spanning-tree mst cost

This command configures the path cost on a spanning instance in the Multiple Spanning Tree. Use the no form to restore the

default.

Syntax

spanning-tree mst instance_id cost cost no spanning-tree mst instance_id cost

instance_id - Instance identifier of the spanning tree.

(Range: 0-4094, no leading zeroes)

cost - Path cost for an interface.

(Range: 0 for auto-configuration, 1-65535 for short path cost method24, 1-200,000,000 for long path cost method)

The recommended path cost range is listed in Table 4-63 on page 4-211. The recommended path cost is listed in Table

4-64 on page 4-212.

Default Setting

By default, the system automatically detects the speed and duplex mode used on each port, and configures the path cost

according to the values shown below. Path cost “0” is used to indicate auto-configuration mode. When the short path cost

method is selected and the default path cost recommended by the IEEE 8021w standard exceeds 65,535, the default is

set to 65,535. The default path costs are listed in Table 5-65

Command Mode

Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)

Command Usage

Each spanning-tree instance is associated with a unique set of VLAN IDs.

This command is used by the multiple spanning-tree algorithm to determine the best path between devices. Therefore,

lower values should be assigned to interfaces attached to faster media, and higher values assigned to interfaces with

slower media.
