Network Administrators can assign MSTP Interface settings in the MSTP Interface Settings
page
.
To define MSTP interface settings:
1. Click
Layer 2 > Multiple STP > Interface Settings
. The MSTP Interface Settings page
opens:
MSTP Interface Settings
The MSTP Interface Settings
page
contains the following fields:
Instance ID
— Lists the MSTP instances configured on the device. Possible field range
is 0-15.
Interface
— Displays the interface for which the MSTP settings are displayed. The
possible field values are:
Port
— Specifies the port for which the MSTP settings are displayed.
LAG
— Specifies the LAG for which the MSTP settings are displayed.
Port State
— Indicates whether the port is enabled for the specific instance. The possible
field values are:
Enable
— Enables the port for the specific instance.
Disable
— Disables the port for the specific instance.
Type
— Indicates whether the port is a Boundary or Master port. The possible field
values are:
Boundary Port
— Indicates that the port is a Boundary port. A Boundary port
attaches MST bridges to LANs in an outlying region. If the port is a Boundary port,
this field also indicates whether the device on the other side of the link is working in
RSTP or STP mode.
Internal Port
— Indicates the port is an internal network port.
