2.1.10 RSTP
The Spanning-Tree Protocol (STP) is IEEE 802.1d standardized method for avoiding loops in
switched networks. Enable STP to ensure that only one path at a time is active between any two
nodes on the network.
The Rapid-Spanning-Tree-Protocol (RSTP) is a more advanced protocol than STP according to
IEEE 802.1w standard. RSTP can shorten spanning tree convergent time while network
topology is changed. A default diagram is shown below,
