>Description:
The brconfig(8) manual page states:

> priority value
>   Set the bridge priority for Spanning Tree.  The default is 32768.
>   The minimum is 0 and the maximum is 65536.

"maximum" in the context of priority can be misinterpreted. I think the manual page should state that for these parameters lower means better.
