Syntax
spanning-tree rstp force-version stp
Parameters stp — Force the version for the BPDUs transmitted by RSTP.
Default Not congured
Command Mode CONFIGURATION
Usage Information Forces a bridge that supports RSTP or MST to operate in a STP-compatible manner to avoid frame misordering
and duplication in known LAN protocols that are sensitive.
Example
OS10(config)# spanning-tree rstp force-version stp
Supported Releases 10.2.0E or later
spanning-tree rstp forward-time
Congures a time interval for the interface to wait in the Blocking state or the Learning state before moving to the Forwarding state.
Syntax
spanning-tree rstp forward-time seconds
Parameters seconds — Enter the number of seconds an interface waits in the Blocking or Learning States before moving to
the Forwarding state (4 to 30).
Default 15 seconds
Command Mode CONFIGURATION
Usage Information None
Example
OS10(config)# spanning-tree rstp forward-time 16
Supported Releases 10.2.0E or later
spanning-tree rstp hello-time
Sets the time interval between generation and transmission of RSTP BPDUs.
Syntax
spanning-tree rstp hello-time seconds
Parameters seconds — Enter a hello-time interval value in seconds (1 to 10).
Default 2 seconds
Command Mode CONFIGURATION
Usage Information Dell EMC recommends increasing the hello-time for large congurations (especially congurations with multiple
ports).
Example
OS10(config)# spanning-tree rstp hello-time 5
