Table 3-3. LAG Configuration Fields (Continued)
Field Description
Enables Port Spanning Tree. The Spanning
Tree mode creates a logical tree topology out
of any arrangement of bridges, resulting in a
single path between any two end stations. The
Spanning Tree Mode also provides high fault
tolerance. The possible states are:
• - Enables the Spanning Tree
Mode.
• - Disables the Spanning Tree
Mode.
For more information refer to Spanning Tree
Algorithm (STA) in The Reference Guide.
The state of the LAG in terms of the Spanning
Tree Protocol. The possible states are:
• Disable - The LAG is disabled.
• Blocking - STP is enabled and currently
blocking the LAG. The LAG is effectively
disabled to prevent the formation of a
loop in the network.
• Forwarding - The LAG is currently
forwarding information received.
The speed of communication of the ports on
the selected LAG. Possible values are:
• - 10 Mbps.
• - 100 Mbps.
A cost factor used by Spanning Tree Algorithm
to determine the most efficient route for
forwarding traffic to its destination while
removing loops in the network.
For more information refer to Spanning Tree
Algorithm (STA) in The Reference Guide.
- 1000 Mbps.
