Configuration Guide                                                                                                                    MSTP Configuration 
 
Return to the privileged EXEC mode. 
Ruijie# show running-config 
Verify the configuration. 
Ruijie# copy running-config 
startup-config 
To  restore  the  forward-delay  time  to  the  default  value,  execute  the  no 
spanning-tree forward-time command in the global configuration mode. 
Configuring Max-Age Time 
Configure the maximum period of time before the BPDU message is aged out. 
The default value is 20s. 
In the privilege mode, perform these steps to configure the Max-Age Time: 
Ruijie# configure terminal 
Enter the global configuration mode. 
Ruijie(config)# spanning-tree 
max-age seconds 
Configure the max age time ranging from 
6 to 40s, 20s by default. 
Return to the privileged EXEC mode. 
Ruijie# show running-config 
Verify the configuration. 
Ruijie# copy running-config 
startup-config 
To restore the max age time to the default value, execute the no spanning-tree 
max-age command in the global configuration mode. 
Hello Time, Forward-Delay Time and Max-Age Time have their 
own value ranges. Meanwhile, the following condition must be 
addressed: 2*(Hello Time + 1.0 seconds) <= Max-Age Time <= 
2*(Forward-Delay  –  1.0 second). Otherwise,  it  may  cause the 
topology instability 
 
Configuring Tx-Hold-Count 
Configure the maximum number of the BPDU message sent per second, 3 by 
default. 
To configure the Tx-Hold-Count, execute the following commands in the global 
configuration mode:
