The switches implement the following STP features:

Compensate automatically for the failure, removal, or addition
of any bridge in an active data path.

Achieve port changes in short time intervals, which
establishes a stable active topology quickly with a minimum
of network disturbance.

Use a minimum amount of communications bandwidth to
accomplish the operation of the STP.

Reconfigure the active topology in a manner which is
transparent to stations transmitting and receiving data
packets.

Manage the topology in a consistent and reproducible
manner through the use of STP parameters.
