3. Configure the following parameters as necessary.

1 - Force Version
This selection determines whether the bridge operates with MSTP or in
an STP-compatible mode. If you select MSTP, the bridge operates all
ports in MSTP, except for those ports that receive STP or RSTP BPDU
packets. If you select Force STP Compatible, the bridge uses its MSTP
parameter settings, but sends only STP BPDU packets from the ports.

2 - Hello Time
The time interval between generating and sending configuration
messages by the bridge. The range of this parameter is 1 to 10
