Radio port (Radio A) 
priority 
128 
 0-255 
The preference that STP gives to 
this port relative to the other ports 
for forwarding traffic out of the 
spanning tree. 
 
A higher numerical value means 
a lower priority; thus, the highest 
priority is 8. 
 
 
The Radio and Ethernet interfaces are assigned to bridge group by default. When the user enables 
STP and assigns a priority on bridge, STP is enabled on the radio and Ethernet interfaces. The 
interfaces adopt the priority assigned to bridge.  
The user can edit the STP Priority, Bridge Max age, Bridge hello time, Forward Delay, STP Port 
priority and STP Port Path cost. 
 
The  Transparent Aging Time determines the time to refresh entries in the Forwarding Table. The 
Transparent Aging Time default value is 300 seconds.
