Setting Spanning Tree parameters for a switch

Setting Spanning Tree parameters for a switch
You cannot configure Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) when adding a new LAG. STP can be configured
only after the LAG has been added to the switch.
NOTE
The ports and the ports in a link aggregation group (LAG) for the selected switch must be in Layer 2
(L2) mode. If the ports or ports in a LAG are not in L2 mode, a yellow banner displays, indicating
Spanning Tree Protocol is disabled and the STP parameters are disabled as well.
1. Select Configure > Switch > CEE from the menu bar.
2. Select a switch, and click Edit.
3. Click the Spanning Tree Protocol tab on the Edit Port dialog box.
4. Click the Enable Spanning Tree Protocol check box to enable STP, and click OK.
