8. Adjust the following parameters as necessary.

1 - Port Priority
This parameter is used as a tie breaker when two or more ports are
determined to have equal costs to the root bridge. The range is 0 to
240 in increments of 16. The default value is 8 (priority value 128). For
a list of the increments, refer to Table 6 on page 425.

2 - Port Cost
The spanning tree algorithm uses the cost parameter to decide which
port provides the lowest cost path to the root bridge for that LAN. The
range is 0 to 20,000,000. The default setting is Automatic Update,
which sets port cost depending on the speed of the port. Table 9 lists
the RSTP port costs with Auto-Detect.
