Hello Time
The Hello time of the Spanning Tree
field shows the number of seconds
between the transmissions of spanning
Tree protocol configuration messages.
Forward Delay
The Forward Delay field shows the
number of seconds a port waits before
changing from its Spanning Tree Protocol
learning and listening states to the
forwarding state. This wait is necessary so
that other switches on the network ensure
no loop is formed before they allow the
port to forward packets.
Max Age
The maximum age time of the spanning tree shows the number of seconds the bridge
waits without receiving Spanning Tree Protocol configuration messages before
attempting a reconfiguration.
1. Select Spanning Tree state option and set Root Priority from 0 -
65535 s, and Hello Time from 1 - 10 s.
2. Key in the Forward Delay Time, Maximum Age and Hold Time.
3. Click Apply and Save button to update your configuration.
NOTE
The screen is divided into two sections. Current Spanning Tree Root section
displays the read-only Spanning Tree settings for the current root switch and
the parameters this switch is to use when it becomes the root switch only when
you click on Apply button.
