User level: read-write, admin.
Use the set port spantree cost command to set the cost of a port. This value 
defines which port will be allowed to forward traffic if two ports with different costs 
cause a loop.

The syntax for this command is:

 [module/port] [value]

Example:

User level: read-write, admin.
Use the set port spantree force-protocol-migration command to set 
the port as an RSTP port (and not as common STA port). It forces the port to send a 
rapid spanning tree BPDU.

The syntax for this command is:

set port spantree force-protocol-migration <module/port>

module

Number of the module (3-6). 

port

Number of the port on the module. If you do not specify a 
number, the port spantree cost is set for all the ports on the 
module.
You can also specify a range of ports separated by a dash, 
for example, 4/5-13 for ports 5 to 13 on module 4.

value

Number representing the cost. The cost level is set from 1
