Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP)
The Dell Networking Operating System (OS) implementation of rapid spanning tree protocol (RSTP) is based on the IEEE 802.1w standard
spanning-tree protocol. The RSTP algorithm congures connectivity throughout a bridged local area network (LAN) that is comprised of
LANs interconnected by bridges.
bridge-priority
Set the bridge priority for RSTP.
Syntax
bridge-priority priority-value
To return to the default value, use the no bridge-priority command.
Parameters
priority-value Enter a number as the bridge priority value in increments of 4096. The range is from 0 to
61440. The default is 32768.
Defaults 32768
Command Modes CONFIGURATION RSTP (conf-rstp)
Supported Modes Full–Switch

Related Commands protocol spanning-tree rstp — enters rapid spanning tree mode.
debug spanning-tree rstp
Enable debugging of RSTP and view information on the protocol.
Syntax
debug spanning-tree rstp [all | bpdu interface {in | out} | events]
To disable debugging, use the no debug spanning-tree rstp command.
Parameters
all (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword all to debug all spanning tree operations.
bpdu interface {in |
out}
(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword bpdu to debug the bridge protocol data units.
(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword interface along with the type slot/port of the
interface you want displayed. Type slot/port options are the following:
• For a Port Channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then a number.
The range is from 1 to 128.
