General settings of spanning tree
On this page, you configure the settings for MSTP. As default, Rapid Spanning Tree is
enabled that can be set to the MSTP, RSTP or STP compatible mode with a switch.
On the configuration pages of these functions, you can make detailed settings.
Depending on the compatibility mode, you can configure the corresponding function on the
