Configuring RSTP
This section contains the following procedures:
”Configuring the RSTP Bridge Settings”, next
“Configuring the RSTP Port Settings” on page 200
“Displaying RSTP Settings” on page 202
“Restoring the RSTP Default Settings” on page 204
Caution
The bridge provides default RSTP parameters that are adequate for
most networks. Changing them without prior experience and an
understanding of how RSTP works might have a negative effect on
your network. You should consult the IEEE 802.1w standard before
changing any of the RSTP parameters.
The following procedures assume that RSTP 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.
Configuring the
RSTP Bridge
Settings
To configure RSTP bridge parameters:
1. From the Home page, click the Configuration button.
2. From the Configuration menu, click the Layer 2 button.
3. Select the Spanning Tree tab, shown in Figure 70 on page 184.
