USING THE ROOT SWITCH

In a multiple-bridge environment, the Root switch, Figure 4-1, for a
particular bridge allows the user to set that bridge as the root bridge. Only
one bridge can serve as the root bridge in a multiple bridge environment,
however. In the event that two bridges have been selected as root bridges,
the bridge in the environment with the lowest identifier will become the
root bridge.
