Description

STP

Configurable field; enables or disables the Spanning
Tree Protocol on the selected port.

Enable — the port joins the Spanning Tree

Protocol calculation; the state of the port is
decided by STP and will be in blocking, listen-
ing, learning, or forwarding mode.

Disable — the port is removed from the Span-

ning Tree Protocol calculation.

Important: if the port’s state is enabled and

the STP is disabled, the port remains in the
forwarding mode.
