Configure Spanning Tree Protocol The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) provides a tree topology for any arrangement of bridges. STP also provides one path between end stations on a network, eliminating loops. Spanning tree versions supported include Common STP, Multiple STP, and Rapid STP. Classic STP provides a single path between end stations, avoiding and eliminating loops. For information on configuring Common STP, see Configure CST Port Settings on page 162. Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) supports multiple instances of spanning tree to efficiently channel VLAN traffic over different interfaces. Each instance of the spanning tree behaves in the manner specified in IEEE 802.1w, Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP), with slight modifications in the working but not the end effect (chief among the effects is the rapid transitioning of the port to the forwarding state). The difference between the RSTP and the traditional STP (IEEE 802.1D) is the ability to configure and recognize full-duplex connectivity and ports that are connected to end stations, resulting in rapid transitioning of the port to the forwarding state and the suppression of Topology Change Notification. These features are represented by the parameters pointtopoint and edgeport. MSTP is compatible with both RSTP and STP. It behaves in a way that is appropriate for STP and RSTP bridges. An MSTP bridge can be configured to behave entirely as an RSTP bridge or an STP bridge. Configure Switching 158

Configure Spanning Tree Protocol
The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) provides a tree topology for any arrangement of bridges.
STP also provides one path between end stations on a network, eliminating loops. Spanning
tree versions supported include Common STP, Multiple STP, and Rapid STP.
Classic STP provides a single path between end stations, avoiding and eliminating loops. For
information on configuring Common STP, see
Configure CST Port Settings
on page 162.
Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) supports multiple instances of spanning tree to
efficiently channel VLAN traffic over different interfaces. Each instance of the spanning tree
behaves in the manner specified in IEEE 802.1w, Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP), with slight
modifications in the working but not the end effect (chief among the effects is the rapid
transitioning of the port to the forwarding state). The difference between the RSTP and the
traditional STP (IEEE 802.1D) is the ability to configure and recognize full-duplex connectivity
and ports that are connected to end stations, resulting in rapid transitioning of the port to the
forwarding state and the suppression of Topology Change Notification. These features are
represented by the parameters pointtopoint and edgeport. MSTP is compatible with both
RSTP and STP. It behaves in a way that is appropriate for STP and RSTP bridges. An MSTP
bridge can be configured to behave entirely as an RSTP bridge or an STP bridge.
