Automatically adding ports to an STPD (known as STP autobind) cannot be configured on a
●
Netlogin VLAN.
STP cannot be configured on the following ports:
●
A mirroring target port.
■
A software-controlled redundant port.
■

Configuring STP on the Switch
To configure basic STP:
1 Create one or more STPDs using the following command:
create stpd <stpd_name>
2 Add one or more VLANs to the STPD using the following command:
configure stpd <stpd_name> add vlan <vlan_name> ports [all | <port_list>] {[dot1d
| emistp | pvst-plus]}
3 Define the carrier VLAN using the following command:
configure stpd <stpd_name> tag <stpd_tag>
NOTE
The carrier VLAN's VLANid must be identical to the StpdID of the STPD.
4 Enable STP for one or more STPDs using the following command:
enable stpd {<stpd_name>}
After you have created the STPD, you can optionally configure STP parameters for the STPD.
NOTE
You should not configure any STP parameters unless you have considerable knowledge and experience with STP. The
default STP parameters are adequate for most networks.
The following parameters can be configured on each STPD:
Hello time
●
Forward delay
●
Max age
●
Bridge priority
●
StpdID
●
The following parameters can be configured on each port:
Path cost
●
Port priority
●
Port mode
