Section IV: Spanning Tree Protocols

339

You can avoid this problem by not activating spanning tree or by
connecting VLANs using tagged instead of untagged ports. (For
information on tagged and untagged ports, refer to Chapter 20, Tagged
and Port-based Virtual LANs on page 385.) Another appr
oach is to use
the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol, explained in Chapter 19 on page
352, which allows you to create mu
ltiple spanning trees within a
network.
