II. Configuration example
# Configure Ethernet 1/0/1 to recognize and send packets in dot1s format.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface Ethernet 1/0/1
[Sysname-Ethernet1/0/1] stp compliance dot1s
# Restore the default mode for Ethernet 1/0/1 to recognize/send MSTP packets.
[Sysname-Ethernet1/0/1] undo stp compliance
