SPANNING TREE BPDU

spanning-tree bpdu

Overview Use this command to configure BPDU (Bridge Protocol Data Unit) discarding or
forwarding, when STP is disabled on the switch. This may be needed for correct STP
operation in complex networks.
There is no no variant for this command. Instead, apply the discard parameter to
reset it back to the default then re-enable STP with the command
enable.
spanning-tree bpdu
Syntax
{discard|forward|forward-untagged-vlan|forward-vlan}
Default The discard parameter is enabled by default.
Mode Global Configuration
Usage notes This command enables the switch to forward unsupported BPDUs with an
unsupported Spanning Tree Protocol, such as proprietary STP protocols with
unsupported BPDUs, by forwarding BDPU (Bridge Protocol Data Unit) frames
unchanged through the switch.
You must disable RSTP with the no spanning-tree rstp enable command before
you can use this command.
When you want to revert to default behavior on the switch, issue a spanning-tree
bdpu discard command and re-enable Spanning Tree with a spanning-tree rstp
enable command.
