Configure bridge parameters here.

Select whether to enable or disable rapid spanning tree. The default is 

“Off”.

Set the time to hold MAC address learned by frame forwarding of the 

bridge. If the network configuration is changed frequently, try to set 

smaller value to shorten the time of relearning. 1-86400 seconds can be 

set. The default value is 300 seconds.

Select whether to enable or disable BPDU forwarding. Enabled by 

default.

Configure the priority to recognize the bridge in the spanning tree. 

Normally, duplicate ID can be in the same network. The bridge device 

which has the smallest priority in the network works as the “root bridge”.

Set the time to reconfigure the bridge. Smaller value makes 

reconfiguration faster. If the network is massive, the reconfiguration may 

not be able to finish by the set time. 4-30 seconds can be set. The default 

value is 15 seconds.
Note: This setting is enabled when the AirStation is working as the root 
bridge. If it is not the root bridge, this setting is ignored.

Select how long before the AirStation automatically reconfigures the 

bridge once it stops receiving BPDU frames. 6-40 seconds can be set. The 

default value is 20 seconds.
Note: This setting is enabled when the AirStation is working as the root 
bridge. If it is not the root bridge, this setting is ignored.

Specify the maximum number of BPDU sent in 1 second. 1-10 can be 

entered. The default value is 6.

Select whether to enable or disable Auto edge. If enabled, the port which 

does not receive BPDU for 3 seconds works as the edge port. Disabled by 

default.
