Common and Internal Spanning Tree (CIST).

Syntax Definitions

Platforms Supported

Usage Guidelines

This command is an explicit Spanning Tree command that only applies to the port connection type for

the CIST instance regardless of which operating mode (flat or 1x1) is active on the switch.

If the switch is running in the 1x1 mode when this command is used, the specified edge port status is

not active for the CIST instance until the switch is configured to run in the flat Spanning Tree mode.

Note that when a configuration snapshot is taken of the switch, all Spanning Tree commands are saved

in their explicit format.

The administrative edge port status is used to determine if a port is an edge or non-edge port when

automatic edge port configuration (auto-edge) is disabled for the port. However, if auto-edge is

enabled for the port, then the administrative status is overridden.

Rapid transition of a designated port to forwarding can only occur if the port's connection type is

defined as a point to point or an edge port. Rapid transition of an alternate port role to a root port role is

not affected by the port connection type definition.
