Port Priority defines the priority for the use of a port in the STA algorithm. If the path cost for all ports on

a switch are the same, the port with the highest priority (that is, lowest value) will be configured as an

active link in the Spanning Tree. Where more than one port is assigned the highest priority, the port with

lowest numeric identifier will be enabled. The range is 0 - 255.
