hello-time 4 and sets the hello delay timer to 4 seconds.
Switch(config)#interface fastethernet 0/1 Moves to interface configuration mode
Configures the cost for the interface that is an access port.
NOTE: If a loop occurs, STP uses the path cost when
Switch(config-if)#spanning-tree cost 100000
trying to determine which interface to place into the
forwarding state.
