to the routing protocols until it is in the STP FORWARDING state.

This completes the configuration for FSX-A. The configuration for FSX-B and C is very similar except
for a few issues which are as follows:
• IP subnets and IPX networks configured on FSX-B and FSX-C must be unique across the entire
network, except for the backbone port-based VLANs 5, 6, and 7 where the subnet is the same but
the IP address must change.
• There is no need to change the default priority of STP within VLAN 4.
• There is no need to include a virtual router interface within VLAN 4.
• The backbone VLAN between FSX-B and FSX-C must be the same at both ends and requires a
new VLAN ID. The VLAN ID for this port-based VLAN is VLAN 7.
