Spanning Tree Information
The switch software uses the IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree Protocol (STP). If IEEE 802.1w Rapid
Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), the IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), or Per
VLAN Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (PVRST) are turned on, see “RSTP/MSTP Information” on
page 86.
When STP is used, in addition to seeing if STG is enabled or disabled, you can view the following
STG bridge information:
