Enabling STP
Having many bridges creates the potential for network loops.
A loop presents conflicting information about the segment on
which a specific address is located and forces the bridge to
forward all data.
When you enable STP, the PARTNER ACS 1600 DSL
module reconfigures the bridge network to channel data along
an optimum route to its destination.
To configure the PARTNER ACS 1600 DSL module as a
bridge, you must enable STP both globally and by port.
Enabling STP globally
To enable STP globally:
1.
On the Main Menu, select
Configure Bridge
.
The
Bridge Configuration Menu
displays.
