Spanning Tree Protocol
The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) provides a tree topology for any arrangement of bridges. 
STP also provides one path between end stations on a network, eliminating loops. Spanning 
tree versions supported include Common STP, Multiple STP, and Rapid STP.
Classic STP provides a single path between end stations, avoiding and eliminating loops. For 
information on configuring Common STP, see 
Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) supports multiple instances of Spanning Tree to 
efficiently channel VLAN traffic over different interfaces. Each instance of the Spanning Tree 
behaves in the manner specified in IEEE 802.1w, Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP), with slight 
modifications in the working but not the end effect (chief among the effects, is the rapid 
transitioning of the port to ‘Forwarding’). The difference between the RSTP and the traditional 
STP (IEEE 802.1D) is the ability to configure and recognize full-duplex connectivity and ports 
which are connected to end stations, resulting in rapid transitioning of the port to ‘Forwarding’ 
state and the suppression of Topology Change Notification. These features are represented 
by the parameters ‘pointtopoint’ and ‘edgeport’. MSTP is compatible to both RSTP and STP. 
It behaves appropriately to STP and RSTP bridges. A MSTP bridge can be configured to 
behave entirely as a RSTP bridge or a STP bridge.
Note:  
For two bridges to be in the same region, the force version should 
be 802.1s and their configuration name, digest key, and revision 
level should match. For additional information about regions and 
their effect on network topology, refer to the IEEE 
802.1Q
 standard.
