spanning-tree
This command enables the Spanning Tree Algorithm globally for the switch. Use the
no
form to disable it.
Syntax

spanning-tree
Default Setting
Spanning tree is enabled.

Global Configuration
Command Usage
The Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) can be used to detect and disable
network loops, and to provide backup links between switches, bridges or
routers. This allows the switch to interact with other bridging devices (that is,
an STA-compliant switch, bridge or router) in your network to ensure that only
one route exists between any two stations on the network, and provide backup
links which automatically take over when a primary link goes down.
Example
This example shows how to enable the Spanning Tree Algorithm for the switch:
spanning-tree mst cost
Configures the path cost of an instance in the MST
IC
spanning-tree mst
port-priority
Configures the priority of an instance in the MST
IC
spanning-tree
protocol-migration
Re-checks the appropriate BPDU format
PE
show spanning-tree
Shows spanning tree configuration for the common
spanning tree (i.e., overall bridge), a selected interface, or
an instance within the multiple spanning tree
PE
show spanning-tree mst
configuration
Shows the multiple spanning tree configuration
PE
Console(config)#spanning-tree
