Things look good in the MICE switch:

  Spanning tree enabled protocol rstp
  Root ID    Priority    4096
             Address     0019.e254.f340
             Cost        2
             Port        34 (TenGigabitEthernet0/10)
             Hello Time   2 sec  Max Age 20 sec  Forward Delay 15 sec

Thanks,
   Steve
