Bridge Protocol Data Unit Configuration

Bridge Protocol Data Unit (BPDU) is a transmission message in LAN in order to configure,
maintain the configuration for STP/RSTP/MSTP. Switches that STP is configured ex-
change their information BPDU to find best path. MSTP BPDU is general STP BPDU hav-
ing additional MST data on it’s end. MSTP part of BPDU does not rest when it is out of
Region.

Hello Time

Hello time decides an interval time when a switch transmits BPDU. It can be config-

ured from 1 to 10 seconds. The default is 2 seconds.

Max Age

Root switch transmits new information every time based on information from another

switches. However, if there are many switches on network, it takes lots of time to

transmit BPDU. And if network status is changed while transmitting BPDU, this in

formation is useless. To get rid of useless information, max age is identified in each

information.

Forward Delay

Switches find location of another switches connected to LAN though received BPDU

and transmit packets. Since it takes certain time to receive BPDU and find the loca-

tion before transmitting packet, switches send packet at regular interval. This interval

time is named forward delay.

The configuration for BPDU is applied as selected in force-version. The same commands
are used for STP, RSTP, MSTP, PVSTP and PVRSTP.

8.3.9.1 Hello

Time

Hello time decides an interval time when a switch transmits BPDU. To configure hello
time, use the following command.

Command Mode

Description

stp mst hello-time

<1-10>

Configures hello time to transmit the message in STP,
RSTP and MSTP:
1-10: set the hello time. (default: 2)

stp pvst hello-time

VLAN-RANGE

<1-10>

Bridge

Configures hello time to transmit the message in
PVSTP and PVRSTP:
1-10: set the hello time. (default: 2)
