probability the port will be chosen to forward
packets.
Default port cost:
100Mbps port = 200000
Gigabit ports = 20000
Priority
A Port Priority can be from 0 to 240. The
lower the number, the greater the probability
the port will be chosen as the Root Port.
Migration
Select Yes or No. Choosing Yes will enable
the port to migrate from 802.1d STP status to
802.1w RSTP status. RSTP can coexist with
standard STP, however the benefits of RSTP
are not realized on a port where an 802.1d
network connects to an 802.1w enabled
network. Migration should be enabled (Yes)
on ports connected to network stations or
segments that will be upgraded to 802.1w
RSTP on all or some portion of the segment.
Edge
Select Yes or No. Choosing Yes designates
the port as an edge port. Edge ports cannot
create loops, however an edge port can lose
edge port status if a topology change creates
a potential for a loop. An edge port normally
should not receive BPDU packets. If a BPDU
packet is received it automatically loses edge
port status. No indicates the port does not
have edge port status.
P2P
Select Yes or No. Choosing Yes indicates a
point-to-point (p2p) shared link. These are
similar to edge ports, however they are
restricted in that a p2p port must operate in
full duplex. Like edge ports, p2p ports
transition to a forwarding state rapidly thus
benefiting from RSTP.
Unicast Forwarding
To enter a MAC address into the switch’s forwarding table, click on the Forwarding Filtering folder on the Configuration menu
and then click Unicast Forwarding:
