Per-VLAN Spanning Tree Plus
www.dell.com | support.dell.com
FTOS supports three other variations of Spanning Tree, as shown in
Table 40-1
.
Implementation Information
•
The FTOS implementation of PVST+ is based on IEEE Standard 802.1d.
•
The FTOS implementation of PVST+ uses IEEE 802.1s costs as the default costs (
Table 40-2
). Other
implementations use IEEE 802.1d costs as the default costs if you are using Dell Force10 systems in a
multi-vendor network, verify that the costs are values you intended.
•
You must allocate at least the default minimum amount of Layer 2 ACL CAM space when employing
PVST+ on the E-Series. See
Configure Ingress Layer 2 ACL Sub-partitions on page 295
.
•
On the C-Series and S-Series, you can enable PVST+ on 254 VLANs.
Configure Per-VLAN Spanning Tree Plus
Configuring PVST+ is a four-step process:
1. Configure interfaces for Layer 2
.
2. Place the interfaces in VLANs.
3. Enable PVST+. See
page 837.
4. Optionally, for load balancing, select a non-default bridge-priority for a VLAN. See page 837.
