COMMAND USAGE
â—† This command defines the priority for the use of a port in the Spanning
Tree Protocol. If the path cost for all ports on a wireless bridge are the
same, the port with the highest priority (that is, lowest value) will be
configured as an active link in the spanning tree.
â—† Where more than one port is assigned the highest priority, the port with
lowest numeric identifier will be enabled.
EXAMPLE
AP(if-wireless a)#bridge-link port-priority 1 64
AP(if-wireless a)#

vap (STP Interface) This command selects the VAP interface for configuring STP settings.
SYNTAX
vap <vap-index>
vap-index - The index number for the VAP interface. (Range: 0-7)
COMMAND MODE

path-cost (STP
Interface)
This command sets the spanning tree path cost for the VAP interface.
SYNTAX
path-cost <cost>
cost - The path cost for the VAP interface. (Range: 1-65535)
COMMAND MODE
Global Configuration (STP interface)
COMMAND USAGE
â—† This command is used by the Spanning Tree Protocol to determine the
best path between devices. Therefore, lower values should be assigned
to interfaces with faster media, and higher values assigned to
interfaces with slower media.
â—† Path cost takes precedence over port priority.
