- RSTP Mode – If RSTP is using 802.1D BPDUs on a port and
receives an RSTP BPDU after the migration delay expires, RSTP
restarts the migration delay timer and begins using RSTP BPDUs
on that port.
• Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol
- To allow multiple spanning trees to operate over the network, you
must configure a related set of bridges with the same MSTP
configuration, allowing them to participate in a specific set of
spanning tree instances.
- A spanning tree instance can exist only on bridges that have
compatible VLAN instance assignments.
- Be careful when switching between spanning tree modes.
Changing modes stops all spanning-tree instances for the previous
mode and restarts the system in the new mode, temporarily
disrupting user traffic.
Example
The following example configures the switch to use Rapid Spanning Tree.
spanning-tree forward-time
