Procedure
PurposeCommand or Action
Enters configuration mode.switch# configure terminal
Step 1
Configures a software switch as the secondary root
bridge. The vlan-range value can be 2 through 4094
switch(config)# spanning-tree vlan
vlan-range root secondary [diameter
dia [hello-time hello-time]]
Step 2
(except reserved VLAN values.) The dia default is 7.
The hello-time can be from 1 to 10 seconds, and the
default value is 2 seconds.
This example shows how to configure the switch as the secondary root bridge for a VLAN:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# spanning-tree vlan 5 root secondary diameter 4
Configuring the Rapid PVST+ Port Priority
You can assign lower priority values to LAN ports that you want Rapid PVST+ to select first and higher
priority values to LAN ports that you want Rapid PVST+ to select last. If all LAN ports have the same priority
value, Rapid PVST+ puts the LAN port with the lowest LAN port number in the forwarding state and blocks
other LAN ports.
The software uses the port priority value when the LAN port is configured as an access port and uses VLAN
port priority values when the LAN port is configured as a trunk port.
Procedure
PurposeCommand or Action
Enters configuration mode.switch# configure terminal
Step 1
Specifies the interface to configure, and enters interface
configuration mode.
switch(config)# interface type
slot/port
Step 2
Configures the port priority for the LAN interface. The
priority value can be from 0 to 224. The lower the value,
switch(config-if)# spanning-tree
[vlan vlan-list] port-priority priority
Step 3
the higher the priority. The priority values are 0, 32, 64,
96, 128, 160, 192, and 224. All other values are rejected.
The default value is 128.
This example shows how to configure the access port priority of an Ethernet interface:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/4
switch(config-if)# spanning-tree port-priority 160
You can only apply this command to a physical Ethernet interface.
