Configuring STP on the Switch

STP configuration involves the following actions:

❑ Create one or more STP domains using the following

command:

create stpd

Note

STPD, VLAN, and QoS profile names must all be unique. For example,
a name used to identify a VLAN cannot be used when you create an
STPD or a QoS profile.

❑ Add one or more VLANs to the STPD using the following

command:

config stpd add vlan

❑ Enable STP for one or more STP domains using the following

command:

enable stpd {}

Note

All VLANs belong to a STPD. If you do not want to run STP on a VLAN,
you must add the VLAN to a STPD that is disabled.

Once you have created the STPD, you can optionally configure STP
parameters for the STPD.

Caution

You should not configure any STP parameters unless you have
considerable knowledge and experience with STP. The default STP
parameters are adequate for most networks.

The following parameters can be configured on each STPD:

❑ Hello time

❑ Forward delay

❑ Max age

❑ Bridge priority
