Command Usage
• This command defines the priority for the use of a port in the
Spanning Tree Algorithm. If the path cost for all ports on a switch are
the same, the port with the highest priority (that is, lowest value) will
be configured as an active link in the spanning tree.
• Where more than one port is assigned the highest priority, the port
with lowest numeric identifier will be enabled.
