CONFIGURATION : Spanning Tree Protocol
Spanning Tree Protocol is a link management protocol that provides path redundancy
while preventing undesirable loops in the network. For an Ethernet network to function
properly, only one active path can exist between two stations.
Multiple active paths between stations cause loops in the network. If a loop exists in the
network topology, the potential exists for duplication of messages. When loops occur,
some switches see stations appear on both sides of the switch. This condition confuses the
forwarding algorithm and allows duplicate frames to be forwarded.
