Chapter 33 Configuring Fallback Bridging
Configuring Fallback Bridging
To return to the default setting, use the no bridge bridge-group priority global configuration command.
To change the priority on a port, use the bridge-group priority interface configuration command
(described in the next section).
This example shows how to set the switch priority to 100 for bridge group 10:
Switch(config)# bridge 10 priority 100
Changing the Interface Priority
You can change the priority for a port. When two switches tie for position as the root switch, you
configure a port priority to break the tie. The switch with the lowest port value is elected.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to change the port priority. This procedure is
optional.
To return to the default setting, use the no bridge-group bridge-group priority interface configuration
command.
Command Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
bridge bridge-group priority number Change the VLAN-bridge spanning-tree priority of the switch.
• For bridge-group, specify the bridge group number. The range is 1
to 255.
• For number, enter a number from 0 to 65535. The default is 32768.
The lower the number, the more likely the switch will be chosen as
the root.
Step 3
end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 4
show running-config Verify your entry.
Step 5
copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entry in the configuration file.
Command Purpose
