Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)
Command Usage
â—† When enabled, BPDUs are flooded to all other ports on the switch or to all other
ports within the receiving port’s native VLAN as specified by the spanning-tree
system-bpdu-flooding command.
â—† The spanning-tree system-bpdu-flooding command has no effect if BPDU
flooding is disabled on a port by the spanning-tree port-bpdu-flooding
command.
Example
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5
Console(config-if)#spanning-tree port-bpdu-flooding
Console(config-if)#
spanning-tree
port-priority
This command configures the priority for the specified interface. Use the no form to
restore the default.

Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)
Command Usage
â—† This command defines the priority for the use of a port in the Spanning Tree
Algorithm. If the path cost for all ports on a switch 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
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5
Console(config-if)#spanning-tree port-priority 0
