Note: If link aggregation (see on page 11 „Link Aggregation“) is used to
combine the connection lines between devices into a trunk, then the
automatically specified path costs are reduced by half.
6.1.5 Port Identifier
The Port Identifier consists of 2 bytes. One part, the lowest-value byte, signi-
fies the fixed relationship with the physical port number. This part ensures
that no port of a bridge has the same identifier as another port of this bridge.
The second part is the port priority, which is specified by the Administrator
(default value: 128). It also applies here that the port with the smallest
number for the port identifier has the highest priority.

Table 12: Recommended path costs for RSTP based on the data rate
* Bridges that conform with IEEE 802.1D, 1998 edition, and only support 16-bit
values for the path costs should use the value 65 535 for path costs when they are
used in conjunction with bridges that support 32-bit values for the path costs.
