Command Usage
The Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) can be used to detect and
disable network loops, and to provide backup links between
switches, bridges or routers. This allows the switch to interact
with other bridging devices (that is, an STA-compliant switch,
bridge or router) in your network to ensure that only one route
exists between any two stations on the network, and provide
backup links which automatically take over when a primary
link goes down.
