Usage guidelines
If a port on a device that runs MSTP or RSTP mode connects to an STP device, the port will automatically
transition to the STP mode. It cannot automatically transition back to the original mode when:
• The STP device is shut down or removed.
• The STP device transitions to the MSTP or RSTP mode.
Then, you can perform an mCheck operation to forcibly transition the port to operation in the original
mode.
Suppose Device A running STP, Device B with no spanning tree feature enabled, and Device C running
RSTP or MSTP are connected in order. Device B will transparently transmit STP BPDUs, and the port on
Device C and connecting to Device B will transition to the STP mode. After you enable the spanning tree
feature on Device B, to run RSTP or MSTP between Device B and Device C, you must perform an mCheck
operation on the ports interconnecting Device B and Device C, in addition to configuring the spanning
tree to operate in RSTP or MSTP mode on Device B.
The device operates in STP, RSTP, or MSTP mode depending on the spanning tree mode setting.
The stp mcheck command is effective only when the device operates in MSTP or RSTP mode.
Configured in system view, the setting takes effect globally.
