Enabling and Disabling STP Transitions on linkState Changes

The menu item stpFollowLinkState has been added. It allows you to enable
or disable Spanning Tree transitions on linkState changes. The default is
enabled.
When enabled and the link goes down, stpState transitions to disabled. If the
link comes up, Spanning Tree moves through its normal states.
When disabled, the link state has no effect on the stpState. If the link goes
down, the stpState remains in its current state.
If you are a Windows 95 client and directly connected to a CoreBuilder 6000
and running IPX, you must disable stpFollowLinkState. If you are not a
Windows 95 client, do nothing.
To enable or disable Spanning Tree transitions:
1 From the top level of the Administration console, enter:
bridge stpFollowLinkState
2 To enable Spanning Tree transitions, enter:
enabled
To disable Spanning Tree transitions, enter:
disabled

Displaying Bridge Information

To display the bridge information:
1 From the top level of the Administration console, enter:

OR

The system prompts you for slot number(s).
