Configuring Spanning Tree Protocols (J-Web Procedure)

Copyright © 2017, Juniper Networks, Inc.
NOTE: This topic applies only to the J-Web Application package.
For EX Series switches provide Layer 2 loop prevention through Spanning Tree Protocol
(STP), Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP),
and VLAN Spanning Tree Protocol (VSTP). You can configure STP, RSTP, and MSTP by
using the J-Web interface. You can configure bridge protocol data unit (BPDU) protection
on interfaces to prevent them from receiving BPDUs that could result in STP
misconfigurations, which could lead to network outages.
NOTE: In EX4300 switches, you can configure STP only by enabling RSTP
and forcing it to act as STP. You need to select the Force STP check box from
the RSTP configuration page.
To configure STP, MSTP, or RSTP for an EX Series switch by using the J-Web interface:
