Configure Spanning Tree
Configuring spanning tree is a two-step process.

Important Points to Remember
•
STP is disabled by default.
•
The Dell Networking OS supports only one spanning tree instance (0). For multiple instances, enable the multiple spanning tree protocol
(MSTP) or per-VLAN spanning tree plus (PVST+). You may only enable one flavor of spanning tree at any one time.
•
All ports in virtual local area networks (VLANs) and all enabled interfaces in Layer 2 mode are automatically added to the spanning tree
topology at the time you enable the protocol.
•
To add interfaces to the spanning tree topology after you enable STP, enable the port and configure it for Layer 2 using the
switchport
command.
•
The IEEE Standard 802.1D allows 8 bits for port ID and 8 bits for priority. The 8 bits for port ID provide port IDs for 256 ports.
