Forward Delay
Indicates the Forward Delay parameter value that the root bridge is currently using. This
value specifies the amount of time that the bridge ports remain in the Listening and
Learning states before entering the Forwarding state.
value specifies the amount of time that the bridge ports remain in the Listening and
Learning states before entering the Forwarding state.
Note that the root bridge’s Forward Delay parameter value becomes the (actual) Forward
Delay parameter value for all bridges participating in the spanning tree network. See also
Bridge Forward Delay.

Bridge Forward Delay.
Default Value
15
Range
4 to 30 seconds
Bridge Hello
Time
Time
Indicates the Hello interval (the amount of time between transmissions of Configuration
Bridge PDUs) specified by management for this bridge. This parameter takes effect only
when this bridge becomes the root bridge.
Bridge PDUs) specified by management for this bridge. This parameter takes effect only
when this bridge becomes the root bridge.
Note that, although you can set the Hello interval for a bridge using bridge management
software, once the spanning tree computation process is complete, all bridges
participating in the spanning tree network use the root bridge’s Hello Interval parameter
value. If any bridge becomes the root bridge, its Hello Interval parameter value becomes
the (actual) Hello Interval parameter value for all bridges participating in the spanning
tree network. See also Hello Time.
