STP: Understanding the basics of STP_chaging the interface speed




















As soon as I changed the speed, the cost of the path increased and thus the SWITCH4 (the middle one) ports are mostly amber.

Switch>en
Switch#conf t
Switch(config)#interface range f0/1 - 6

Switch(config-if-range)#speed ?
  10    Force 10 Mbps operation
  100   Force 100 Mbps operation
  auto  Enable AUTO speed configuration
Switch(config-if-range)#speed 10

Now the question is why the 2 O'Çlock interface is amber but the 12 O'Clock interface is green???

Because total cost of the path via the 2'oclock will be 100+19=119 and if it goes via 12'oclock it will be only 100.
