Usage Guidelines
• Enabling the restricted TCN status is used by network administrators to prevent bridges external to the
core region of the network from causing unnecessary MAC address flushing in that region.
• Note that enabling the restricted TCN status for a port may impact Spanning Tree connectivity.
• This command is an explicit Spanning Tree command that only applies to the specified VLAN instance
regardless of which operating mode (flat or 1x1) is active on the switch.
• If the switch is running in the flat mode when this command is used, the specified restricted TCN
status for the port is not active for the VLAN instance until the switch is running in the 1x1 Spanning
Tree mode.
Tree mode.
• Note that when a configuration snapshot is taken of the switch, all Spanning Tree commands are saved
in their explicit format.
