Move the spanning-tree blocked ports
Hello,
I have actually a loop of 2950 Series Switch (7 switchs in the loop), I implement spanning-tree pvst on each swith.
Then 1 port is blocked by spanning-tree, on the switch 5.
Whereas, I want to block the port 24 of the switch number 7. How can I do this, I suppose I can fix a cost. They have all 19 as cost on FastEthernet and 4 for the Giga interface. (show spanning-tree)
Which procedure or command line can I use to fix the blocked port on a port I want.
Thanks in advance for your answer to my issue, it's urgent.

On switch 7, port 24 (if this is the uplink you want to block on) you want to increase the spanning tree port cost so that it blocks on that uplink, use:
spanning-tree cost 200
spanning-tree cost 200
