Spanning Tree Protocol

 – STP uses a distributed algorithm to select a bridging 

device (STP-compliant switch, bridge or router) that serves as the root of the 
spanning tree network. It selects a root port on each bridging device (except for the 
root device) which incurs the lowest path cost when forwarding a packet from that 
device to the root device. Then it selects a designated bridging device from each 
LAN which incurs the lowest path cost when forwarding a packet from that LAN to 
the root device. All ports connected to designated bridging devices are assigned as
