Identifier of the port

Prio
|
Priority identifier according to the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP). A lower number stands for a higher priority. In the event of several active ports to a target device, the port with the lowest priority will be blocked.
|
State
|
State of the port. Possible entries: 'blocking': port disabled 'learning': connection being established to remote station 'forwarding': connection active, packets being transferred through port
|
Root
|
ID consisting of the priority identifier (2 bytes) and MAC address of the device negotiated as root bridge in the STP-controlled network. The root bridge is the device in the network with the highest prio, i.e. the lowest priority identifier number.
