Cisco Cisco Aironet 340 Ethernet Bridges Guia Do Utilizador
8 - 2 Aironet 340 Series Bridge
Overview
STP is used to remove loops from a bridged LAN environment.
The Aironet 340 Series Bridge implements the IEEE 802.1d Spanning
Tree Protocol (STP) specification to manage multiple bridges in an
extended LAN environment. This allows the Aironet 340 Series Bridge
to be used in bridged infrastructures with other 802.1d compliant
bridges. The protocol also allows the bridges in an arbitrarily connected
infrastructure to discover a topology that is loop free (a tree) and make
sure there is a path between every pair of LANs (a spanning tree).

If you are administering a multiple-bridge infrastructure, this Chapter
explains how the protocol works. However, if your infrastructure con-
sists of a single bridge you can operate with the default values, although
it might not be the optimal configuration required.
