By default, the switch calculates the default Path Cost of a port by the IEEE 802.1t
standard.

Generally the path cost of the links in full duplex status is lower than those in half duplex
status.
In calculating the path cost of aggregation links, the 802.1D-1998 does not take into
account the number of aggregation links, but the 802.1T does. The formula involved is:
Path Cost = 200,000,000/link speed in 100Kbps
