Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP)

Overview

The Dell Force10 operating software (FTOS) implementation of the rapid spanning tree protocol
(RSTP) is based on the IEEE 802.1w standard spanning-tree protocol. The RSTP algorithm configures
connectivity throughout a bridged local area network (LAN) that is comprised of LANs interconnected
by bridges.
