Using the Command Line Interface
Default Setting
15 seconds
Command Mode
Global Configuration
Command Usage
This command sets the maximum time (in seconds) the root device will wait
before changing states (i.e., discarding to learning to forwarding). This delay
is required because every device must receive information about topology
changes before it starts to forward frames. In addition, each port needs time
to listen for conflicting information that would make it return to the
discarding state; otherwise, temporary data loops might result.
Example
bridge stp hello-time
Use this command to configure the spanning tree bridge hello time globally for
the wireless bridge. Use the no form to restore the default.
Syntax
bridge stp hello-time <time>
no bridge stp hello-time
time - Time in seconds. (Range: 1-10 seconds).
The maximum value is the lower of 10 or [(max-age / 2) -1].
Default Setting
2 seconds
Command Mode
Global Configuration
Command Usage

transmits a configuration message.
