Description 1
Indicates the type of spanning tree path cost mode configured on the switch. This mode applies to all instances of the Spanning tree protocol running on the switch. When the value of this MIB object is changed, the path cost of all ports will be reassigned to the default path cost values based on the new spanning tree path cost mode and the ports\ speed. When the value of this MIB object is set to long(2), the staPortLongPathCost MIB object must be used to retrieve/ configure the spanning tree port path cost as a 32 bit value. The set operation on dot1dStpPortPathCost in the BRIDGE-MIB will be rejected. When retrieving the value of dot1dStpPortPathCost, the maximum value of 65535 will be returned if the value of staPortLongPathCost for the same instance exceeds 65535. When the value of this MIB object is set to short(1), the dot1dStpPortPathCost in the BRIDGE-MIB must be used.
