Configuring the Switch Priority of a VLAN
You can configure the switch priority and make it more likely that the switch will be chosen as the root
switch.
Note Exercise care when using this command. For most situations, we recommend that you use the
spanning-tree vlan vlan-id root primary and the spanning-tree vlan vlan-id root secondary global
configuration commands to modify the switch priority.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure the switch priority of a VLAN:
To return the switch to its default setting, use the no spanning-tree vlan vlan-id priority global
configuration command.

leading zeros.
• For priority, the range is 0 to 61440 in increments of
