xStack DES-3500 Series Layer 2 Stackable Fast Ethernet Managed Switch User Manual TX Hold Count Used to set the maximum number of Hello packets transmitted per interval. The count can be specified from 1 to 10. The default is 3. Forwarding BPDU This field can be Enabled or Disabled. When Enabled, it allows the forwarding of STP BPDU packets from other network devices. The default is Enabled. Loopback Guard This feature is used to temporarily block STP on the Switch when a BPDU packet has been looped back to the switch. When the Switch detects its own BPDU packet coming back, it signifies a loop on the network. STP will automatically be blocked and an alert will be sent to the administrator. The LBD STP port will restart (change to discarding state) when the LBD Recover Time times out. The user may enable or disable this function using the pull-down menu. The default is enabled. LBD Recover Time This field will set the time the STP port will wait before recovering the STP state set. 0 will denote that the LBD will never time out or restart until the administrator personally changes it. The user may also set a time between 60 and 1000000 seconds. The default is 60 seconds. MST Configuration Identification Configuration Name Enter an alphanumeric string of up to 32 characters to uniquely identify the MSTP region on the Switch. This Configuration Name, along with the Revision Level value will identify the MSTP region configured on the Switch. If no name is entered, the default name will be the MAC address of the device. This field is only valid when MSTP is the version of STP globally set on the Switch. Revision Level Enter a number between 0 and 65535 to identify the MSTP region. This value, along with the name will identify the MSTP region configured on the Switch. The default setting is 0. This field is only valid when MSTP is the version of STP globally set on the Switch.
