last changed.
Topology Change Count The number of times that the topology changed for the CST.
Topology Change The value of the topology change parameter for the switch indicating
whether a topology change is in progress on any port assigned to the CST
.
Possible values are

Root Path Cost Path cost to the designated root for the CST.
Root Port Port to access the designated root for the CST.
Max Age (secs) The maximum age timer controls the maximum length of time in seconds
that passes before a bridge port saves its configuration BPDU information.
Forward Delay (secs) The derived value of the Root Port Bridge Forward Delay parameter.
Hold Time (secs) Minimum time in seconds between the transmission of configuration
BPDUs.
