Spanning Tree

The Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) provides rapid convergence of the spanning tree by
assigning port roles and by determining the active topology. The RSTP builds upon the IEEE
802.1D STP protocol to select the switch with the highest switch priority as the root switch.
Reconfiguration of the spanning tree can occur in less than 1 second.
