Command Reference Updates
This section describes each new command.
disable mstp port
Syntax DISable MSTP POrt={port-list|ALL}
where:
■ port-list is a port number, range (specified as n-m), or comma-separated list
of port numbers and/or ranges. Port numbers start at 1 and end at m,
where m is the highest numbered Ethernet switch port, including uplink
ports.
Description This new command disables the Multiple Spanning Tree algorithm on the
specified ports, or all ports, for both the CIST and all currently configured
MSTIs. This command offers a shorter alternative to using the disable mstp
cist port
command, followed by the disable mstp msti port command.
Example To disable the CIST and all MSTIs on ports 10-15, use the command:
dis mstp po=10-15
