with the higher priority in forwarding state and block other ports to make certain
that there is no loop in the LAN.

This page includes the following fields:
OBJECT DESCRIPTION
Path Cost
The cost of the path to the other bridge from this transmitting bridge
at the specified port.
Enter a number 1 through 200,000,000.
Priority
Decide which port should be blocked by setting its priority as the
lowest. Enter a number between 0 and 240.
The value of priority must be the multiple of 16.
Admin P2P
The rapid state transitions possible within RSTP are dependent
upon whether the port concerned can only be connected to exactly
another bridge (i.e. it is served by a point-to-point LAN segment), or
can be connected to two or more bridges (i.e. it is served by a
shared medium LAN segment). This function allows the P2P status
of the link to be manipulated administratively.
 YES means the port is regarded as a point-to-point link.
 NO means the port is regarded as a shared link.
 AUTO means the link type is determined by the auto-negotiation
between the two peers..
Admin Edge
The port directly connected to end stations won't create bridging
loop in the network. To configure the port as an edge port, set the
port to "YES" status.
