Configuring PVST and Rapid PVST
The basic process for configuring PVST or Rapid PVST is as follows.
1. Issue the RPC to configure the node in the
urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-interface namespace.
2. Under the node, include the node from the
urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-xstp namespace.
3. Under the node, include the or node element to access the
PVST or Rapid PVST mode parameters.
For more details, refer to “Enabling STP, RSTP, MSTP, PVST, or Rapid PVST” on page 338.
4. Under the or node, include the node element and specify the
priority.
A lower priority is more likely to designate the root switch. For more details, refer to “Specifying
the bridge priority for all xSTP” on page 340.
5. Under the or node, include the element and specify how long
an interface remains in the listening and learning states before the interface begins forwarding
all spanning tree instances.
For more details, refer to “Specifying the bridge forward delay for all xSTP” on page 342.
6. Under the or node, specify a element to specify how often the
switch interface broadcasts hello Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDUs) to other devices.
For more details, refer to “Specifying the bridge hello time for all xSTP” on page 348.
7. Under the or node, include the leaf element and control the
maximum length of time that passes before an interface saves its Bridge Protocol Data Unit
(BPDU) configuration information.
For more details, refer to “Specifying the bridge maximum aging time for all xSTP” on
page 344.
8. Issue the RPC to save the running config file to the startup config file and
save the configuration changes.
