Operating Instructions, Release 08/2007, C79000-G8976-C221-02
Example:An L2T client is connected to the access point over the WLAN1 VAP3 interface.
The settings for WLAN1 VAP3 are: priority 128, path costs for STP of 100, path costs for
RSTP of 0 and the setting EdgePort enabled (in other words, there is an end device on this
port). These settings are adopted for the L2T port with one exception.
The Edge-Port enabled setting is not adopted because layer 2 tunneling clients and the ports
downstream from the client can never be edge ports.
●
P.t.P.
There is a point-to-point link when two RSTP-compliant network components are
connected together over this port. There are three possible statuses :
–
ForceTrue
Even with half duplex, a direct link is assumed.
–
ForceFalse
Despite a full duplex connection, a point-to-point link is not assumed.
–
Auto
Point-to-point is detected automatically. If the port is set to half duplex (shared media
connection), a direct link is not assumed.
–
Example: A WDS connection between access points is always a half duplex
connection. With the setting ForceTrue, a direct connection is assumed. With Auto, a
direct connection is not assumed.
●
Enabled
Shows whether spanning tree is enabled or disabled for the port.
