Example
The following command sets the time the VLAN range 2-3 spends in the listening and learning state to 3
seconds:
spanning-tree vlan range 2-3 forward-time 3
The following command sets the time the VLAN range 2-3 waits to transmit BPDUs to 4 seconds:
spanning-tree vlan range 2-3 hello-time 4
The following command sets the time the VLAN range 2-3 waits to receive a hello packet to 30 seconds:
spanning-tree vlan range 2-3 max-age 30
The following command sets the VLAN range 2-3 priority to 10, making it more likely to become the root
bridge:
