Networking OS from executing this action, use the
no spanning-tree pvst err-disable cause invalid-pvst-
bpdu command. After you configure this command, if the port receives a PVST+ BPDU, the BPDU is dropped and the port remains
operational.
Enabling PVST+ Extend System ID
In the following example, ports P1 and P2 are untagged members of different VLANs. These ports are untagged because the hub is
VLAN unaware. There is no data loop in this scenario; however, you can employ PVST+ to avoid potential misconfigurations.
If you enable PVST+ on the Dell Networking switch in this network, P1 and P2 receive BPDUs from each other. Ordinarily, the Bridge
ID in the frame matches the Root ID, a loop is detected, and the rules of convergence require that P2 move to blocking state
because it has the lowest port ID.
To keep both ports in a Forwarding state, use extend system ID. Extend system ID augments the bridge ID with a VLAN ID to
differentiate BPDUs on each VLAN so that PVST+ does not detect a loop and both ports can remain in a Forwarding state.
