ID
An identifier used to identify a STG in the device.
BridgeAddress
MAC address used by a bridge when it is referred to in a unique fashion. Nortel Networks recommends that the number be the smallest MAC address of all ports belonging to the bridge. However, it is only required to be unique. When concatenated with Priority, a unique bridge identifier is formed that is used in the Spanning Tree Protocol.
NumPorts
Number of ports controlled by this bridging entity.
ProtocolSpecification
Version of the Spanning Tree Protocol being run. Values include:
TimeSinceTopologyChange
Time (in hundredths of seconds) since the last topology change was detected by the bridge entity.
TopChange
Number of topology changes detected by the bridge since the management entity was last reset or initialized.
DesignatedRoot
Bridge identifier of the root of the spanning tree as determined by the Spanning Tree Protocol. The value is used as the root identifier parameter in all configuration bridge PDUs originated by this node.
RootCost
Cost of the path to the root as seen from the bridge.
RootPort
Port that has the lowest cost path from the bridge to the root bridge.
MaxAge
Maximum age of Spanning Tree Protocol information learned from the network on any port before it is discarded, in units of hundredths of a second. This is the actual value that this bridge is currently using.
HelloTime
Amount of time between the transmission of configuration bridge PDUs by this node on any port when it is the root of the spanning tree (in hundredths of a seconds). This is the actual value that this bridge is currently using.
HoldTime
Value of the interval length during which no more than two configuration bridge PDUs shall be transmitted by this node (in hundredths of a second).
ForwardDelay
This time value (in hundredths of a seconds) that controls how fast a port changes its spanning state when moving towards the forwarding state.
Value determines how long the port stays in each of the listening and learning states, which precede the forwarding state. This is also used when a topology change has been detected and is underway, to age all dynamic entries in the forwarding database.
Note: This value is the one that this bridge is currently using, in contrast to BridgeForwardDelay which is the value that this bridge and all others would start using if/when this bridge were to become the root.
