cated messages. In “Auto” state the port allows transmission of certain messages
according to the authentication result

state setting.

or root port and parameters are changed at the bridge level.

to use default values. If modifi cation to RSTP parameters is
necessary, consult a networking expert and/or carefully read and
understand RSTP defi nitions and procedures.
