port-priority (STP
Interface)
This command sets the spanning tree path cost for the VAP interface.
SYNTAX
port-priority <priority>
priority - The priority for the VAP interface. (Range: 0-63)
COMMAND MODE
Global Configuration (STP interface)
COMMAND USAGE
◆ This command defines the priority for the use of an interface in the
Spanning Tree Protocol. If the path cost for all interfaces on a bridge
are the same, the interface with the highest priority (that is, lowest
value) will be configured as an active link in the spanning tree.
◆ Where more than one interface is assigned the highest priority, the
interface with lowest numeric identifier will be enabled.
EXAMPLE
AP(stp-if-wireless 0: VAP[0])# port-priority 10
AP(stp-if-wireless 0: VAP[0])#
show bridge stp This command displays displays the global spanning tree settings for the
bridge.
SYNTAX
show bridge stp
COMMAND MODE
