Feedback STP


4.1 STP

STP is a link management protocol that provides path redundancy while preventing undesirable loops in the network that are created by multiple active paths between devices. To establish path redundancy, STP creates a tree that spans all of the switches in an extended network, forcing redundant paths into a standby or blocked state.

For an Ethernet network to function properly, only one active path must exist between two stations. Multiple active paths between stations in a bridged network can cause loops in which Ethernet frames can endlessly circulate. STP can logically break such loops and prevent looping traffic from clogging the network. The dynamic control of the topology provides continued network operation in the presence of redundant or unintended looping paths.


4.2 STP Commands

The following commands enable you to configure STP:


4.3 PVRST+

PVRST+ is a link management protocol that provides path redundancy while preventing undesirable loops in the network that are created by multiple active paths between stations working on same VLAN. To establish path redundancy, STP creates a tree for each VLAN that spans on the switches working on that VLAN, forcing redundant paths into a standby, or blocked state.

For an Ethernet network to function properly, only one active path must exist between two stations. Multiple active paths between stations in a bridged network can cause loops in which Ethernet frames can endlessly circulate. STP can logically break such loops and prevent looping traffic from clogging the network. The dynamic control of the topology provides continued network operation in the presence of redundant or unintended looping paths.



Note - For each VLAN, a spanning-tree instance is created. The number of spanning-tree instances supported in PVRST+ will depend on the number of instances supported by the hardware. There can be more VLANs operating in the switch, but PVRST+ will be operating only on supported instances.



4.4 PVRST+ Commands

The list of commands used for PVRST+ is as follows:


4.5 STP and PVRST+ Commands

4.5.1 spanning-tree mode mst|rst

Sets the spanning-tree operating mode.


spanning-tree mode {mst | rst}


Syntax Description

mst - MSTP configuration

rst - RSTP configuration

Mode

Global Configuration

Defaults

mst

Example

SEFOS(config)# spanning-tree mode rst

Notes

  • When SEFOS boots up, spanning-tree is enabled by default with MSTP operating in the switch.
  • This command only starts and enables the spanning-tree mode. However, port-roles and states are computed only after enabling the spanning-tree.
  • If the user-input for the spanning-tree mode is different from the current mode of operation, then SEFOS shuts down the operational spanning-tree and starts the spanning-tree per user-input.

Related Commands

4.5.2 spanning-tree

Enables the spanning-tree operation. The no form of the command disables the spanning-tree operation.


spanning-tree


no spanning-tree


Mode

Global Configuration

Defaults

Spanning-tree enabled is MSTP

Example

SEFOS(config)# spanning-tree


Related Commands

4.5.3 spanning-tree compatibility

Sets the compatibility version for the spanning-tree protocol. The no form of the command sets the compatibility version for spanning-tree protocol to its default value.


spanning-tree compatibility {stp | rst | mst}


no spanning-tree compatibility


Syntax Description

stp - STP configuration

rst - RSTP configuration

mst - MSTP configuration

Mode

Global Configuration

Defaults

If spanning-tree protocol enabled is MST, then MSTP compatible.

If spanning-tree protocol enabled is RST, then RSTP compatible.

Example

SEFOS(config)# spanning-tree compatibility stp

Notes

The option mst is available only when MSTP is the operational mode of the spanning-tree.

When the spanning-tree mode is mst, the fields in the dot1d Bridge-MIB are not updated, even when the compatibility mode has been set to rst or stp. If you want to use these MIB variables to manage or observe the switch, you must use spanning-tree mode rst.


Related Commands

4.5.4 spanning-tree timers

Sets the spanning-tree timers in seconds. The no form of the command sets the spanning-tree timers to the default values.


spanning-tree {forward-time 4-30 | hello-time 1-2 | max-age 6-40}


no spanning-tree { forward-time | hello-time | max-age }


Syntax Description

forward-time - Controls how fast a port changes its spanning-tree state from blocking state to forwarding state (in seconds).

hello-time- Determines how often the switch broadcasts its hello message to other switches when it is the root of the spanning-tree (in seconds).

max-age - The maximum age allowed for the STP information learnt from the network on any port before it is discarded (in seconds).

Mode

Global Configuration

Defaults

forward-time - 15

hello-time- 2

max-age - 20

Example

SEFOS(config)# spanning-tree max-age 6

4.5.38 spanning-tree mode-mst|rst|pvrst|pvst

Sets the spanning-tree operating mode. The no form of the command sets the default spanning-tree operating mode.


spanning-tree mode {mst | rst | pvrst | pvst}


no spanning-tree mode


Syntax Description

mst - Multiple spanning-tree configuration.

rst - Rapid spanning-tree configuration.

pvrst - Per-VLAN-rapid spanning-tree configuration.

pvst - Per-VLAN-spanning-tree configuration. The keyword pvst is not supported.

Mode

Global Configuration

Defaults

mst

Example

SEFOS(config)# spanning-tree mode pvrst

Notes

  • When SEFOS boots up, spanning-tree is enabled by default with MSTP operating in the switch.
  • This command starts and enables only the spanning-tree mode. However, port-roles and states are computed only after enabling the spanning-tree.
  • If the user-input for the spanning-tree mode is different from the current mode of operation, SEFOS shuts down the operational spanning-tree and start the spanning-tree as per user-input.
  • GVRP must be disabled for setting the spanning-tree mode as PVRST.

Related Commands

4.5.39 spanning-tree vlan

Configures spanning-tree on a per VLAN basis. The no form of the command is used to return to the default setting.


spanning-tree vlan 1-4094 {forward-time 4-30 | hello-time 1-10 | max-age 6-40 | hold-count 1-10 | brg-priority 0-61440 | root {primary | secondary}}


no spanning-tree vlan 1-4096 {forward-time | hello-time | max-age | hold-count | brg-priority | root}


Syntax Description

vlan-id - VLAN identifier associated with a spanning-tree instance. The range is 1 to 4094.

forward-time - The range is 4 to 30 seconds. Sets the forward-delay time for the specified spanning-tree instance. The forwarding time controls how long each of the listening and learning states last before the interface begins forwarding.

hello-time - The range is 1 to 10 seconds. Sets the interval between hello bridge protocol data units (BPDUs) sent by the switch.

max-age - The range is 6 to 40 seconds. Sets the interval between messages the spanning-tree receives from the root switch. If a switch does not receive a BPDU message from the root switch within this interval, it recomputes the spanning-tree topology.

hold-count - The range is 1 to 10. Sets the holding limit of the bridge. The bridge responds to the messages only when it is within the range of its hold-count.

brg-priority - Sets the bridge priority for the given instance.

root - Sets the spanning-tree root with two options:

  • primary - Forces the switch to be the root bridge.
  • secondary - Forces the switch to be the root switch when the primary root fails.

Mode

Global Configuration

Defaults

Spanning-tree is enabled on all VLANs.

forward-delay - 15 seconds.

hello-time - 2 seconds.

max-age - 20 seconds.

hold-count - 3

brg-priority - 32768 + vlan-id

Example

SEFOS(config)# no spanning-tree vlan 5 hello-time

4.5.40 spanning-tree bpduguard

Places an interface in the error-disabled state when it receives a bridge protocol data unit (BPDU). The no form of the command sets it to the default configuration of bpduguard.


spanning-tree bpduguard {disable | enable}


no spanning-tree bpduguard


Syntax Description

disable - Disables BPDU guard on the specified interface

enable - Enables BPDU guard on the specified interface

Mode

Interface Configuration

Defaults

BPDU guard is disabled.

Example

4.5.41 spanning-tree guard

Enables root guard or loop guard on all the VLANs associated with the selected interface. The no form of the command is used to return to the default setting.


spanning-tree guard {root | none | loop}


no spanning-tree guard


Syntax Description

root - Enables root guard on the specified interface. Root guard restricts which interface is allowed to be the spanning-tree root port or the path-to-the-root for the switch.

none - Disables root guard on the specified interface

loop - Enables loop guard on the specified interface. Loop guard prevents alternate or root ports from becoming designated ports when a failure creates a unidirectional link.

Mode

Interface Configuration

Defaults

Root guard is disabled.

Example

SEFOS(config-if)# spanning-tree guard root

Notes

VLAN port mode should be configured as trunk port prior to the execution of this command.
