selected.

. The bridge priority value for the MST. When switches or bridges are 

running STP, each is assigned a priority. After exchanging BPDUs, the switch with 
the lowest priority value becomes the root bridge. The bridge priority is a multiple 
of 4096. If you specify a priority that is not a multiple of 4096, the priority is 
automatically set to the next lowest priority that is a multiple of 4096. For example, 
if the priority is attempted to be set to any value between 0 and 4095, it is set to 0. 
The default priority is 32768.The valid range is 0–61440.
