Spanning Tree Protocol

The Spanning Tree Protocol 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 STP-compliant switch,
bridge or router) in your network to ensure that only one route exists between
any two stations on the network. For a more detailed description of how to use
this algorithm, refer to "Spanning Tree Protocol" on page 4-3. The following
configuration menus are provided for the Spanning Tree Protocol.

Description
Used to configure STP parameters that apply to the overall switch.
Displays the current Spanning Tree status for each port.
Used to display or configure the path cost for each port. This value is used
to determine the best path between network nodes.
Used to display or configure the priority for each port. This value is used to
determine the best path between nodes when the path cost for all ports on
the switch is the same.
