RSTP

RSTP is a protocol that prevents loops in the network and dynamically
reconfigures which physical links in a switch should forward frames.
STA Introduction
The Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) can be used to detect and disable
network loops, and to provide backup links between switches, bridges or
routers. This allows the switch to interact with other bridging devices (that
is, an STA-compliant switch, bridge or router) in your network to ensure
that only one route exists between any two stations on the network, and
provide backup links which automatically take over when a primary link
goes down. The spanning tree algorithms supported by this switch are
STP, Spanning Tree Protocol (IEEE 802.1D), and RSTP, Rapid Spanning
Tree Protocol (IEEE 802.1w).
