Meraki recommended RSTP diameter = 7 - Can support tweak RSTP for me ?

As the topic describes, I have a case where a customer has a ring topology, and worst case, if a link close to the core fails, there will be a diameter of that switch more the 7 hops.

Do anyone know if support can tweak RSTP settings for me beforehand , for this "worst case" scenario ?

 

Thanks

The hop count of 7 isn't a Meraki thing, it's a Spanning Tree thing - it's following the standard.

Yeah, but in a Cisco standard switch you can tweak certain settings, if you need to go beyond 7 (as far as I remember, not saying its recommended, not AT ALL 🙂 ) - Just wondering if support can tweak some of the same settings.
