spanning-tree vlan 10,92 cost 10

Hello,

>> spanning-tree vlan 10,92 cost 10

it modifies (increases) the STP cost for vlans 10 and 92 from default value to 10

These two vlans are also the only two vlans permitted on this L2 trunk.

Hope to help

if you see the config,both the interfaces have same config except this line...what does this mean ?

Hello,

that int gi0/1 the one without the STP cost command would be chosen as root bridge for vlans 10,92 if both links receive equal cost STP BPDU because cost to root bridge is calculated summing to cost in received BPDU the cost of the port where it is received.

So it is likely that G0/4 should act as backup path to root bridge.

if local switch is root bridge for vlans 10,92 there is no practical difference.

Hope to help
