Configure Switch Features
Chapter 3
We recommend that you leave STP enabled to help prevent network loops and
provide a redundant path if the active path becomes unavailable.
Configure STP via Device Manager
From the Configure menu, choose STP Settings.
Global Settings
On the Global tab, you can choose an STP mode and configure spanning tree
instances.
For each VLAN or VLAN group, the switch with the highest switch priority
(the lowest numerical priority value) is elected as the root switch. If all switches
are configured with the default priority (32768), the switch with the lowest
MAC ID in the VLAN becomes the root switch:
•
For MST mode, you can choose a priority value when adding or editing
an MST instance.
•
For PVST+ or Rapid PVST+ modes, you can choose a priority value for
each VLAN in the Spanning Tree Instances table.
IMPORTANT
Disabling STP can affect connectivity to the network.
