Configuring The Rapid Spanning Tree - Hirschmann RS20 User Manual

Spanning Tree
Note: The downside of this fast reconfiguration is the possibility that data
packages could be duplicated and/or arrive at the recipient in the wrong order
during the reconfiguration phase of the RSTP topology. If this is
unacceptable for your application, use the slower Spanning Tree Protocol or
select one of the other, faster redundancy procedures described in this
manual.

Configuring the Rapid Spanning Tree

 Set up the network to meet your demands.
Note: Before you connect the redundant lines, you must complete the
configuration of the RSTP.
You thus avoid loops during the configuration phase.
 For devices with DIP switches, you switch these to "deactivated"
(both to ON), so that the software configuration is not restricted.
 Select the Redundancy:Rapid Spanning Tree:Global dialog.
