PT-G7509 User’s Manual Featured Functions default. To be completely effective, you must enable RSTP/STP on every PT-G7509 connected to your network. Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) implements the Spanning Tree Algorithm and Protocol defined by IEEE Std 802.1D-2004. RSTP provides the following benefits: y The topology of a bridged network will be determined much more quickly compared to STP. y RSTP is backward compatible with STP, making it relatively easy to deploy.
PT-G7509 User’s Manual Featured Functions What happens if a link failure is detected? As shown in next figure, the STP process reconfigures the network so that traffic from LAN segment 2 flows through Bridge B. STP will determine which path between each bridged segment is most efficient, and then assign a specific reference point on the network. When the most efficient path has been identified, the other paths are blocked.
PT-G7509 User’s Manual y y y Featured Functions Communication must be established between all bridges. This communication is carried out using Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDUs), which are transmitted in packets with a known multicast address. Each bridge must have a Bridge Identifier that specifies which bridge acts as the central reference point, or Root Bridge, for the STP system. Bridges with a lower Bridge Identifier are more likely to be designated as the Root Bridge.
PT-G7509 User’s Manual Featured Functions Differences between RSTP and STP RSTP is similar to STP, but includes additional information in the BPDUs that allow each bridge to confirm that it has taken action to prevent loops from forming when it decides to enable a link to a neighboring bridge. Adjacent bridges connected via point-to-point links will be able to enable a link without waiting to ensure that all other bridges in the network have had time to react to the change.
PT-G7509 User’s Manual Featured Functions Cost for LAN Segment 3: y The route through Bridges C and B costs 200 (C to B=100, B to A=100) y The route through Bridges Y and B costs 300 (Y to B=200, B to A=100) The Designated Bridge Port for LAN Segment 3 is Port 2 on Bridge C. y Using STP on a Network with Multiple VLANs IEEE Std 802.1D, 1998 Edition, does not take into account VLANs when calculating STP information—the calculations only depend on the physical connections.
PT-G7509 User’s Manual Featured Functions Configuring STP/RSTP The following figures indicate which Spanning Tree Protocol parameters can be configured. A more detailed explanation of each parameter is given below the figure. At the top of this page, the user can check the Current Status of this function. For RSTP, you will see: Now Active: This field shows which communication protocol is being used—Turbo Ring, RSTP, or neither. Root/Not Root This field appears only for RSTP mode.
PT-G7509 User’s Manual Featured Functions Hello Time (sec.) Setting Numerical value input by user Description Factory Default Specifies the time interval between “hello” 2 messages broadcast by the root of the Spanning Tree topology. The “hello” message is used to check if the topology is healthy. Max. Age (sec.) Setting Numerical value input by user Description Specifies the amount of time to wait for a “hello” message from the root before the PT-G7509 will reconfigure itself as a root.
PT-G7509 User’s Manual Featured Functions The PT-G7509’s firmware will alert you immediately if any of these restrictions are violated. For example, suppose Hello Time = 2 sec, Max. Age = 6 sec, and Forwarding Delay = 4 sec. This does not violate Eqs. 1 through 3, but it violates Eq. 4: 2 * (Hello Time + 1 sec) = 6 sec, and 2 * (Forwarding Delay – 1 sec) = 6 sec. HINT: Take the following steps to avoid guessing: Step 1: Assign a value to “Hello Time” and then calculate the left most part of Eq.
PT-G7509 User’s Manual Featured Functions The IEEE Std 802.1D, 1998 Edition marking scheme, which is an enhancement to IEEE Std 802.1D, enables Quality of Service on the LAN. Traffic service levels are defined in the IEEE 802.1Q 4-byte tag, which is used to carry VLAN identification as well as IEEE 802.1p priority information. The 4-byte tag immediately follows the destination MAC address and Source MAC address. The IEEE Std 802.1D, 1998 Edition priority marking scheme assigns an IEEE 802.
PT-G7509 User’s Manual Featured Functions priority queue based on the IEEE 802.1p service level value defined in that packet. Service level markings (values) are defined in the IEEE 802.1Q 4-byte tag, and consequently traffic will only contain 802.1p priority markings if the network is configured with VLANs and VLAN tagging. The traffic flow through the switch is as follows: y y A packet received by the PT-G7509 may or may not have an 802.1p tag associated with it.

PT-G7509 User’s Manual Featured Functions Using Virtual LAN Setting up Virtual LANs (VLANs) on your PT-G7509 increases the efficiency of your network by dividing the LAN into logical segments, as opposed to physical segments. In general, VLANs are easier to manage. The Virtual LAN (VLAN) Concept What is a VLAN? A VLAN is a group of devices that can be located anywhere on a network, but which communicate as if they are on the same physical segment.
PT-G7509 User’s Manual Featured Functions VLANs and the PowerTrans Your PT-G7509 provides support for VLANs using IEEE Std 802.1Q-1998. This standard allows traffic from multiple VLANs to be carried across one physical link. The IEEE Std 802.1Q-1998 standard allows each port on your PT-G7509 to be placed as follows: y y In a single VLAN defined on the PT-G7509 In several VLANs simultaneously using 802.1Q tagging The standard requires that you define the 802.
PT-G7509 User’s Manual Featured Functions and/or switches and hubs. In general, the traffic of the Trunk Port must have a Tag. Users can also assign PVID to a Trunk Port. The untagged packet on the Trunk Port will be assigned the port default PVID as its VID. The following section illustrates how to use these ports to set up different applications.
PT-G7509 User’s Manual Featured Functions y Packets from Device D will travel through Trunk Port 3 with tagged VID 3. Switch B will recognize its VLAN, pass to port 5, and then remove tags received successfully by Device H. Packets from Device H will travel through Trunk Port 3 with PVID 3.
