XCM8800 supports the new edition of the IEEE 802.1D standard (known as IEEE 802.1D-2004)
for STP, which incorporates enhancements from the IEEE 802.1t-2001, IEEE 802.1W, and IEEE
802.1y standards. The IEEE 802.1D-2004 standard is backward compatible with the IEEE
802.1D-1998 standard. For more information, see
