MSTP Information - 81

Configuration Using the Web Interface

MSTP Information Page

Instance ID

Select an instance ID to display MSTP instance information. Instance 0 (CIST,
Common Internal Spanning Tree) is a special instance of spanning-tree
known as IST or Internal Spanning Tree (=MSTI00).

Root Information

Root Address

Root bridge address, which is the bridge with the smallest (lowest) bridge ID.

Root Priority

Root bridge priority, the bridge with the lowest value has the highest priority
and is selected as the root.

Root Port

Root port of this bridge.

Root Path Cost

Root path cost.

Max Age

The number of seconds a bridge waits without receiving Spanning-Tree
Protocol configuration messages before attempting to reconfigure.

Hello Time

The number of seconds between the transmissions of Spanning-Tree Protocol
configuration messages.

Forward Delay

The number of seconds a port waits before changing from its Spanning-Tree
Protocol learning and listening states to the forwarding state.

Port Information

Port Role

Descriptive information about the MSTP switch port role. Role: Master, Root,
Designated, Alternate, Backup, Boundary, Disabled, Unknown.

Port State

Descriptive information about the MSTP switch port state. State: Blocking,
Listening, Learning, Forwarding, Disabled, Unknown.

Path Cost

The cost of the path to the other bridge from this transmitting bridge at the
specified port. Path cost range is 1 through 200000000.

Port Priority

Decide which port should be blocked by priority in your LAN. The range is 0
through 240 in increments of 16.

Link Type

Operational link type. Some of the rapid state transactions that are possible
within MSTP are dependent upon whether the port in question can be
concerned to exactly one other bridge (that is, it is served by a point-to-point
LAN segment), or can be connected to two or more bridges (that is, it is served
by a shared medium LAN segment).

Edge Port

Operational edge port state. Present in implementations that support the
identification of edge ports. All ports directly connected to end stations cannot
create bridging loops in the network and can thus directly transition to
forwarding, skipping the listening and learning stages. When the non-bridge
device connects an edge port, this port is in blocking state and turn to
forwarding state in 2*Hello Time seconds. When the bridge device connects an
edge port, this port is a non-edge port automatic.
