About Spanning Tree Protocol FX-16NW between the device and the FX-16NW. The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) feature of the Switching Hub implements intelligent fault-tolerance functions to a network. Note: STP is a part of IEEE802.1D Bridge Standard defined by IEEE (Institute of Electrical and electronics Engineers). - Page 29 FX-16NW FX-16NW °¥ Enables the redundant path(s) whenever the main path fails < About STP State Transitions > Just as each switching hub is identified by its switch ID, each port (interface) of a switching hub is identified by its port ID. The state of STP changes (shifts) with the actual condition of the port.
