The valid values for this are 1 to 4094. This is only visible when the select option of the MST ID select box is selected. • Priority. 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. • VLAN ID.
