Spanning Tree

40

3.1 Sub-Ring

Redundancy

Release 6.0 07/2010

Note: 

The RSTP standard dictates that all the devices within a network work 

with the (Rapid) Spanning Tree Algorithm. If STP and RSTP are used at the 
same time, the advantages of faster reconfiguration with RSTP are lost. 

 

A device that only supports RSTP works together with MSTP devices by not 
assigning an MST region to itself, but rather the CST (Common Spanning 
Tree).

Note: 

By changing the IEEE 802.1D-2004 standard for RSTP, the Standards 

Commission reduced the maximum value for the “Hello Time” from 10 s to 
2 s. When you update the Switch software from a release before 5.0 to 
release 5.0 or higher, the new software release automatically reduces the 
locally entered “Hello Time” values that are greater than 2 s to 2 s. 

 

If the device is not the RSTP root, “Hello Time” values greater than 2 s can 
remain valid, depending on the software release of the root device.
