Hello group,

I was reviewing the STP Load Sharing topic and i couldn't believe what i
saw. In the DocCD there are two examples. One using Port-Priority, the other
using Path Cost:

an.htm#wp1139757

But they are missing one fundamental point here: who is the root switch ???

For the Port-Priority example to work, Sw1 must be the root switch.

For the Path Cost example to work, Sw2 must be the root switch.

Please correct me if i'm missing something here.

Thanks,
Antonio
