set to the next lowest priority that is a multiple of 4096. For example, if the priority is
attempted to be set to any value between 0 and 4095, it is set to 0. The default priority
is 32768.
• Bridge Max Age (secs)
. The bridge maximum age time for the Common and Internal
Spanning Tree (CST), which indicates the amount of time in seconds a bridge waits
before implementing a topological change. The valid range is 6–40, and the value
must be less than or equal to (2 * Bridge Forward Delay) – 1 and greater than or equal
to 2 * (Bridge Hello Time +1). The default value is 20.
• Bridge Hello T
ime (secs).
The bridge hello time for the Common and Internal
Spanning Tree (CST), which indicates the amount of time in seconds a root bridge
waits between configuration messages. The value is fixed at 2 seconds. The value
must be less than or equal to (Bridge Max Age / 2) - 1. The default hello time value is
2.
• Bridge Forward Delay (secs).
The bridge forward delay time, which indicates the
amount of time in seconds a bridge remains in a listening and learning state before
forwarding packets.
The value must be greater or equal to (Bridge Max Age / 2) + 1.
The time range is from 4 seconds to 30 seconds. The default value is 15 seconds.
• Spanning T
ree Maximum Hops.
The maximum number of bridge hops the
information for a particular CST instance can travel before being discarded. The valid
range is 6–40. The default is 20 hops.
• Spanning Tree Tx Hold Count. Configures the maximum number of bpdus the bridge
is allowed to send within the hello time window
. The valid range is 1–10. The default
value is 6.

The following table describes the CST Status information that is displayed.

Field Description
Bridge identifier The bridge identifier for the CST. It is made up using the bridge priority
and the base MAC address of the bridge.
Time since topology change The time in seconds since the topology of the CST last changed.
Topology change count Number of times topology changed for the CST.
Topology change The value of the topology change parameter for the switch indicating if
a topology change is in progress on any port assigned to the CST
. It
takes a value if
True or False.
Designated root The bridge identifier of the root bridge. It is made up from the bridge
priority and the base MAC address of the bridge.
Root Path Cost Path Cost to the Designated Root for the CST.
Root Port Identifier Port to access the Designated Root for the CST.
Max Age(secs) Path Cost to the Designated Root for the CST.
