Configuring STP
This section contains the following procedures:
”Configuring the STP Bridge Settings”, next
“Configuring the STP Port Settings” on page 190
“Displaying the STP Settings” on page 192
“Restoring the STP Default Settings” on page 194
Caution
The default settings for the STP parameters are adequate for most
networks. Adjusting the parameters without prior knowledge or
experience with STP might adversely impact your network. You
should consult the IEEE 802.1d standard before changing any of the
STP parameters.
The following procedures assume that STP is the active spanning tree
protocol on the stack. For directions on selecting the active spanning tree
protocol, refer to “Enabling or Disabling a Spanning Tree Protocol” on
page 184.
