Hmmm, never understood it that way. I always thought that it was 7 hops from
the root bridge. As ever my reference is my flaky memory, so I'm off to try
and find out why I thought that.

If the root bridge is physically in the centre of the bridged network, the
diameter is actually the radius.
Hmmm - more coffee - it's late.
Hmm, it is late, but I don't think the placement of the root

If max age isn't changed from the default of 20 seconds, it shouldn't be a
problem? The seven hops came from an assumption that each bridge spends a
few seconds taking in and propagating configuration BPDUs, but high-speed
switches don't take that much time. However, they also don't track how

Here's something
Of course, how often is the root physically in the center? ;-}

Here's something funky I've just started researching. Thought many of you
might not be aware of this...
Awkward STP Parameter Tuning and Diameter Issues
We already saw that an aggressive value for the max-age parameter and the
forward-delay could lead to a very unstable STP. The loss of some
