Spanning Tree Settings for Port
STP settings are available per port if STP is enabled on the
Device tab (see “Spanning Tree Protocol” on page 21).
Edge Port If enabled, designates this port as a port that
connects to only a host device. The host device must not
be connected to another switch or router. The Edge Port is
always in the forwarding state and never undergoes the
learning or blocking state.
Note: Ensure that the Edge Port is connected to
only a host device. If the Edge Port is connected to
a switch or router (even indirectly through a host
device), then this may cause a network loop.
Path Cost The lower the value, the better. STP uses the
Path Cost to determine the best path between devices.
In most cases, specify lower values for ports with higher
bandwidths, such as gigabit speeds, and specify higher
values for ports with lower bandwidth. You can also
specify lower values for ports you prefer to use. (Path Cost
supersedes Priority.) The default is 0.
Priority The lower the value, the better. STP uses the
Priority as a tiebreaker. If the Path Cost of multiple ports
are the same, then STP chooses the port with the highest
Priority (lowest value) as the active port (the others are
blocked). If STP detects a network loop, then a port with
higher Priority is less likely to be blocked. If multiple ports
share the highest Priority, then STP enables the port with
the lowest port ID. The Priority range is 0 (highest priority)
to 255 (lowest priority).The default is 128.
Configure Alerts for Port
If you configure alerts, the alerts display on the Alerts tab;
see Alert Log” on page 28.
For each port, you can configure the following alerts:
Link Goes Up/Down Generates an alert when the link
goes up or down.
RX Bandwidth Goes Above Generates an alert when the
RX bandwidth exceeds the specified maximum. Enter the
maximum in Mbps.
RX Bandwidth Goes Below Generates an alert when the
RX bandwidth drops below the specified minimum. Enter
the minimum in Mbps.
TX Bandwidth Goes Above Generates an alert when the
TX bandwidth exceeds the specified maximum. Enter the
maximum in Mbps.
TX Bandwidth Goes Below Generates an alert when the
RX bandwidth drops below the specified minimum. Enter
the minimum in Mbps.
