Spanning-Tree Protocol provides path redundancy while preventing undesirable 
loops in the network. It forces certain redundant data paths into a standby (blocked) 
state. If one network segment in the Spanning-Tree Protocol becomes unreachable, 
or if Spanning-Tree Protocol costs change, the spanning-tree algorithm reconfigures 
the spanning-tree topology and re-establishes the link by activating the standby path. 

 
The access point is unique in the sense that it may operate in up to 5 different complex 
modes in order to best suit any type of network application that you require.  
 
This section presents a brief outline of the different network applications that can be 
accommodated through the different modes of the access point.
