setbridgeprio <bridge> <priority>
Sets the bridge's priority to <priority>. The priority value is an unsigned
16-bit quantity (a number between 0 and 65535), and has no dimension.
Lower priority values are 'better'. The bridge with the lowest priority will
be elected 'root bridge'.
setfd <bridge> <time>
Sets the bridge's 'bridge forward delay' to <time> seconds.
setgcint <bridge> <time>
Sets the garbage collection interval for the bridge <bridge> to <time>
seconds. This means that the bridge will check the forwarding database
for timed out entries every <time> seconds.
sethello <bridge> <time>
Sets the bridge's 'bridge hello time' to <time> seconds.
setmaxage <bridge> <time>
Sets the bridge's 'maximum message age' to <time> seconds.
setpathcost <bridge> <port> <cost>
Sets the port cost of the port <port> to <cost>. This is a dimensionless
metric.
setportprio <bridge> <port> <prio>
Sets the port <port>'s priority to <priority>. The priority value is an
unsigned 8-bit quantity (a number between 0 and 255), and has no
dimension. This metric is used in the designated port and root port
selection algorithms.
stp <bridge> <state>
Controls this bridge instance's participation in the spanning tree protocol.
If <state> is "on" or "yes" the STP will be turned on, otherwise it will be
turned off. When turned off, the bridge will not send or receive BPDUs,
and will thus not participate in the spanning tree protocol. If your bridge
isn't the only bridge on the LAN, or if there are loops in the LAN's
topology, DO NOT turn this option off. If you turn this option off, please
know what you are doing.
OPTIONS:
None.
EXAMPLES:
Display all the learned MAC addresses on br0
brctl showmacs br0
Set the ageing timer value to be 400 seconds on br0
brctl setageing br0 400
