Example
This example shows how to change the Spanning Tree version from the default of MSTP to STP:
NOTE: In most networks, Spanning Tree version should not be changed from its default
setting of mstp (Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol) mode. MSTP mode is fully compatible
and interoperable with legacy STP 802.1D and Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP) bridges.
Setting the version to stpcompatible mode will cause the bridge to transmit only
802.1D BPDUs, and will prevent non-edge ports from rapidly transitioning to forwarding
state.
mstp Specifies Spanning Tree version 802.1s (MSTP).
rstp Specifies Spanning Tree version 802.1w (RSTP).
stpcompatible Specifies STP 802.1D-compatible.
