Adding and Removing Interfaces
To add and remove interfaces, use the following commands.
To add an interface to the Rapid Spanning Tree topology, configure it for Layer 2 and it is automatically added. If you previously disabled
RSTP on the interface using the command
no spanning-tree 0 command, re-enable it using the spanning-tree 0 command.
• Remove an interface from the Rapid Spanning Tree topology.
no spanning-tree 0
Modifying Global Parameters
You can modify RSTP parameters.
The root bridge sets the values for forward-delay, hello-time, and max-age and overwrites the values set on other bridges participating in
the Rapid Spanning Tree group.
• Forward-delay — the amount of time an interface waits in the Listening state and the Learning state before it transitions to the
Forwarding state.
• Hello-time — the time interval in which the bridge sends RSTP BPDUs.
• Max-age — the length of time the bridge maintains configuration information before it refreshes that information by recomputing the
RST topology.
NOTE: Dell Networking recommends that only experienced network administrators change the Rapid Spanning Tree group
parameters. Poorly planned modification of the RSTP parameters can negatively affect network performance.
