Enabling or Disabling STP Globally
STP is disabled by default. The only required configuration step is to enable the feature.
To enable STP globally on the SafeGuard Switch, use the spanning-tree command in
Global Configuration mode.
Use the no version of the command to disable STP.
spanning-tree
no spanning-tree
The commands have no parameters or variables.
The following example enables STP on the SafeGuard Switch:
(SafeGuardOS) #configure terminal
(SafeGuardOS) (config) #spanning-tree
(SafeGuardOS) (config) #exit
Forcing Transmission of Rapid Spanning Tree
To force a transmission of rapid spanning tree (RSTP) BPDUs, use the spanning-tree
bdpumigrationcheck command in Global Configuration mode. Use the
slot/port
parameter to transmit a BPDU from a specified interface, or use the all keyword to
transmit BPDUs from all interfaces.
