Backup   
The port is attached to a LAN that is serviced by another port on the bridge.  It is 
not used but is standing by.  If a failure of the port that is currently designated for 
the LAN occurs the backup port will become designated for the LAN. 
 Alternate 
The port is attached to a bridge that provides connectivity to the root bridge.  It is 
not used but is standing by.  If a failure of the current root port occurs this port 
will become the new root.  If there are multiple alternate ports the best candidate 
(cost wise) will be elected root. 
Cost 
The cost of this port.  If the Bridge RSTP Parameters Cost Style is set to STP, 100 
Mbps ports will contribute a cost of 19 and 10 Mbps ports contribute a cost of 
100.  If the Cost Style is set to RSTP, 100 Mbps ports will contribute a cost of 
200,000 and 10 Mbps ports contribute a cost of 2,000,000.  Note that even if the 
Cost style is set to RSTP, a port that migrates to STP will have its cost limited to a 
maximum of 65535. 
RX RSTs 
The count of RSTP configuration messages received on this port. 
TX RSTs 
The count of RSTP configuration messages transmitted on this port. 
RX Configs 
The count of STP configuration messages received on this port. 
TX Configs 
The count of STP configuration messages transmitted on this port. 
RX Tcns 
The count of configuration change notification messages received on this port.  
Excessively high or rapidly increasing counts signal network problems. 
TX Tcns 
The count of configuration messages transmitted on this port. 
Designated Root ID 
Provided on the root ports of designated bridges, the Bridge Identifier of the 
bridge this port is connected to.
