Menu Item Description
1. Admin Mode Enable or disable administrator mode
2. Version Shows which IEEE specification this meets
3. Configuration Name Name for configuration, typically MAC address, up to 32 characters
4. Configuration Revision Set a revision level between 1 and 65535
5. Priority Set the relative precedence within the STP control structure for the
9161, from 1 (highest) to 65534 (lowest). The highest priority sets
the root bridge, the bridge that controls the spanning tree. If two or
more bridges share the same priority, the lowest MAC address
defines the highest priority.
6. Hello Time (sec) Set how often the 9161 sends BPDUs if this 9161 is the Spanning
Tree root.
7. Forward Delay (sec) Set the time between port state transitions from Learning to Forward
if this bridge is the Spanning Tree root.
8. Max Age (sec) Set the Timeout value, how fast the 9161 deletes addresses from the
forwarding database.
9. View/Change Interface Set a specific STP port for viewing
