Enabling Root Guard
We recommend that you enable root guard on your device.
The root bridge and secondary root bridge of a panning tree should be located in the same MST region.
Especially for the CIST, the root bridge and secondary root bridge are generally put in a high-bandwidth
core region during network design. However, due to possible configuration errors or malicious attacks in
the network, the legal root bridge may receive a configuration BPDU with a higher priority. In this case,
the current legal root bridge will be superseded by another device, causing an undesired change of the
network topology. As a result, the traffic that should go over high-speed links is switched to low-speed
links, resulting in network congestion.
To prevent this situation from happening, MSTP provides the root guard function to protect the root
bridge. If the root guard function is enabled on a port of a root bridge, this port will keep playing the role
of designated port on all MSTIs. Once this port receives a configuration BPDU with a higher priority from
an MSTI, it immediately sets that port to the listening state in the MSTI, without forwarding the packet
(this is equivalent to disconnecting the link connected with this port in the MSTI). If the port receives no
BPDUs with a higher priority within twice the forwarding delay, the port will revert to its original state.
