• Root Forward Delay – The maximum time (in seconds) this device will
wait before changing states (discarding to learning to forwarding). This
delay is required because every device must receive information about
topology changes before it starts to forward frames. In addition, each
port needs time to listen for conflicting information that would make it
return to a discarding state; otherwise, temporary data loops might
result.
• Max hops – The max number of hop counts for the MST region.
• Remaining hops – The remaining number of hop counts for the MST
instance.
• Transmission limit – The minimum interval between the transmission
of consecutive RSTP/MSTP BPDUs.
• Path Cost Method – The path cost is used to determine the best path
between devices. The path cost method is used to determine the range
of values that can be assigned to each interface.
