Field Description
• hello time
• topology change
• notification
• aging
“Port 1...” Displays the Interface type slot/port information and the
status of the interface (Disabled or Enabled).
“Port path...” Displays the path cost, priority, and identifier for the
interface.
“Designated
root...”
Displays the priority and MAC address of the root bridge of
the STG that the interface belongs.
“Designated
port...”
Displays the designated port ID.
The following describes the show spanning-tree 0 guard command shown in
the Example (Guard).
Field Description
Interface Name STP interface.
Instance STP 0 instance.
Sts Port state: root-inconsistent (INCON Root), forwarding
(FWD), listening (LIS), blocking (BLK), or shut down (EDS
Shut).
Guard Type Type of STP guard configured (Root, Loop, or BPDU guard).
The peGigE ports and VP-LAG ports information is displayed as part of theshow
spanning-tree 0
command output, only when the guard option is entered.
Example
