Configuring the Root Switch
To configure a switch as the root for the specified VLAN, use the spanning-tree vlan vlan-id root global
configuration command to modify the switch priority from the default value (32768) to a significantly lower
value. When you enter this command, the software checks the switch priority of the root switches for each
VLAN. Because of the extended system ID support, the switch sets its own priority for the specified VLAN
to 24576 if this value will cause this switch to become the root for the specified VLAN.
Use the diameter keyword to specify the Layer 2 network diameter (that is, the maximum number of switch
hops between any two end stations in the Layer 2 network). When you specify the network diameter, the
switch automatically sets an optimal hello time, forward-delay time, and maximum-age time for a network
of that diameter, which can significantly reduce the convergence time. You can use the hello keyword to
override the automatically calculated hello time.
This procedure is optional.
