Thanks, that's what I sought!

So how do I control who becomes the STP root bridge for a STP domain ?

Make sure that switch is ALWAYS the first to come up ?

Surely this can't be a solution in real world networks ?

When you change the STP priority on a switch to be the lowest (most prefered) switch does that switch automatically become the root switch for all switches in that STP domain ? ie something like HSRP preempt ?

Or does this only count for new switches booting up ?

Thanks, Thomas
