ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide
1202
configure stpd tag
configure stpd <stpd_name> tag <stpd_tag>
Description
Assigns an StpdID to an STPD.
Syntax Description
Default
N/A.
Usage Guidelines
If your STPD has the same name as another component, for example a VLAN, Extreme Networks
recommends that you specify the identifying keyword as well as the name. If your STPD has a name
unique only to that STPD, the keyword
stpd
is optional.
You should not configure any STP parameters unless you have considerable knowledge and experience
with STP. The default STP parameters are adequate for most networks.
An StpdID is used to identify each STP domain. You assign the StpdID when configuring the domain.
An StpdID must be identical to the VLANid of the carrier VLAN in that STP domain, and that VLAN
cannot belong to another STPD. Unless all ports are running in 802.1D mode, an STPD with ports
running in either EMISTP mode or PVST+ mode must be configured with an StpdID.
You must create and configure the VLAN, along with the tag, before you can configure the STPD tag. To
create a VLAN, use the
create vlan
command. To configure the VLAN, use the
configure vlan
commands.
MSTP Only.
MSTP uses two different methods to identify the STPDs that are part of the MSTP network.
An instance ID of 0 identifies the CIST. The switch assigns this ID automatically when you configure the
CIST STPD. To configure the CIST STPD, use the
configure stpd <stpd_name> mode [dot1d |
dot1w | mstp [cist | msti <instance>]]
command.
An MSTI identifier (MSTI ID) identifies each STP domain that is part of an MSTP region. You assign the
MSTI ID when configuring the STPD that participates in the MSTP region. Each STPD that participates
in a particular MSTP region must have the same MSTI ID. To configure the MSTI ID, use the
configure
stpd <stpd_name> mode [dot1d | dot1w | mstp [cist | msti <instance>]]
command.
Example
The following command assigns an StpdID to the
purple_st
STPD:
configure stpd purple_st tag 200
stpd_name
Specifies an STPD name on the switch.
stpd_tag
Specifies the VLANid of the carrier VLAN that is owned by the STPD.
