Lesson 3 — STP and RSTP configuration
Introduction
This lesson outlines the main steps for configuring STP or RSTP on an HP ProCurve
managed switch.
The first step is enabling the protocol by entering the spanning-tree command from
the switch's command line interface (CLI).
Depending upon the switch software and the hardware platform, some HP ProCurve
switches default to RSTP when you enable spanning tree.
Newer HP ProCurve switches, however, default to MSTP. Check your switch
documentation for the default protocol.
