Chapter 19: Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol

Section IV: Spanning Tree Protocols

Enabling MSTP

The AT-9400 Switch can support the three spanning tree protocols STP,
RSTP, and MSTP. However, only one spanning tree protocol can be
active on the switch at a time. So before you can enable a spanning tree
protocol, you must first select it as the active spanning tree protocol. After
you select it, you can then enable or disable it.

To select MSTP as the active spanning tree protocol and to enable or
disable it, perform the following procedure:

Note

Changing the active spanning tree protocol resets the switch.

1. From the Home page, select Configuration.

2. From the Configuration menu, select the Layer 2 option.

3. Select the Spanning Tree tab.

The Spanning Tree tab is shown in Figure 120.

Note

If you do not want to change the active spanning tree protocol and
just want to enable or disable it, go to Step 5.
