Configuring Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) Related Features
Table 46
lists the individual Dell PowerConnect switches and the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)
features they support.
STP overview
The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) eliminates Layer 2 loops in networks, by selectively blocking
some ports and allowing other ports to forward traffic, based on global (bridge) and local (port)
parameters you can configure.
STP related features, such as RSTP and PVST, extend the operation of standard STP, enabling you
to fine-tune standard STP and avoid some of its limitations.
You can enable or disable STP on a global basis (for the entire device), a port-based VLAN basis (for
the individual Layer 2 broadcast domain), or an individual port basis.
Configuration procedures are provided for the standard STP bridge and port parameters as well as
Dell features listed in
Table 52
.
