Then Switch 1, Switch 5, and Switch 6 send RST BPDUs that contain the TCN to Switch 3 and Switch 4 to
complete the TCN propagation (Figure 7.22).

Compatibility of 802.1W with 802.1D
802.1W-enabled bridges are backward compatible with IEEE 802.1D bridges. This compatibility is managed on a
per-port basis by the Port Migration state machine.
However, intermixing the two types of bridges in the
network topology is not advisable if you want to take advantage of the rapid convergence feature.
Compatibility with 802.1D means that an 802.1W-enabled port can send BPDUs in the STP or 802.1D format
when one of the following events occur:
•
The port receives a legacy BPDU. A legacy BPDU is an STP BPDU or a BPDU in an 802.1D format. The port
that receives the legacy BPDU automatically configures itself to behave like a legacy port. It sends and
receives legacy BPDUs only.
•
The entire bridge is configured to operate in an 802.1D mode when an administrator sets the bridge
parameter to zero at the CLI, forcing all ports on the bridge to send legacy BPDUs only.
Once a port operates in the 802.1D mode, 802.1D convergence times are used and rapid convergence is not
realized.
