Selecting STP Root
The STP determines the root bridge, but you can assign one bridge a lower priority to increase the likelihood that it becomes the root
bridge. You can also specify that a bridge is the root or the secondary root.
To change the bridge priority or specify that a bridge is the root or secondary root, use the following command.
• Assign a number as the bridge priority or designate it as the root or secondary root.
PROTOCOL SPANNING TREE mode
bridge-priority { priority-value | primary | secondary}
–
priority-value
: the range is from 0 to 65535. The lower the number assigned, the more likely this bridge becomes the
root bridge.
The primary option specifies a bridge priority of 8192.
The secondary option specifies a bridge priority of 16384.
The default is 32768 .
Example of Viewing STP Root Information
To view only the root information, use the
show spanning-tree root
command from EXEC privilege mode.
Dell#show spanning-tree 0 root

STP Root Guard
Use the STP root guard feature in a Layer 2 network to avoid bridging loops. In STP, the switch in the network with the lowest
priority (as determined by STP or set with the
bridge-priority
command) is selected as the root bridge. If two switches have
the same priority, the switch with the lower MAC address is selected as the root. All other switches in the network use the root
bridge as the reference used to calculate the shortest forwarding path.
Because any switch in an STP network with a lower priority can become the root bridge, the forwarding topology may not be stable.
The location of the root bridge can change, resulting in unpredictable network behavior. The STP root guard feature ensures that the
position of the root bridge does not change.
Root Guard Scenario
For example, as shown in the following illustration (STP topology 1, upper left) Switch A is the root bridge in the network core.
Switch C functions as an access switch connected to an external device. The link between Switch C and Switch B is in a Blocking
state. The flow of STP BPDUs is shown in the illustration.
In STP topology 2 (shown in the upper right), STP is enabled on device D on which a software bridge application is started to
connect to the network. Because the priority of the bridge in device D is lower than the root bridge in Switch A, device D is elected
as root, causing the link between Switches A and B to enter a Blocking state. Network traffic then begins to flow in the directions
indicated by the BPDU arrows in the topology. If the links between Switches C and A or Switches C and B cannot handle the
increased traffic flow, frames may be dropped.
