Table 1: show spanning-tree Interface Output Fields

Field Name

Field Description

Interface name

Interface configured to participate in the STP, RSTP, VSTP, or MSTP instance.

Port ID

Logical interface identifier configured to participate in the MSTP or VSTP instance.

Designated port ID

Port ID of the designated port for the LAN segment to which this interface is attached.

Designated bridge ID

Bridge ID of the designated bridge for the LAN segment to which this interface is attached.

Port Cost

Configured cost for the interface.

Port State

STP port state: forwarding (FWD), blocking (BLK), listening, learning, or disabled.

Port Role

MSTP, VSTP, or RSTP port role: designated (DESG), backup (BKUP), alternate (ALT), (ROOT), or Root Prevented (Root-Prev).

Link type

MSTP, VSTP, or RSTP link type. Shared or point-to-point (pt-pt) and edge or nonedge.

Alternate

Identifies the interface as an MSTP, VSTP, or RSTP alternate root port (Yes) or nonalternate root port (No).

Boundary Port

Identifies the interface as an MSTP regional boundary port (Yes) or nonboundary port (No).

Edge delay while expiry count

Number of times the edge delay timer expired on that interface.

Rcvd info while expiry count

Number of times the rcvd info timer expired on that interface.
