Configuring RSTP

Caution

The bridge provides default RSTP parameters that are adequate for
most networks. Changing them without prior experience and an
understanding of how RSTP works might have a negative effect on
your network. You should consult the IEEE 802.1w standard before
changing any of the RSTP parameters.

To configure RSTP, perform the following procedure:

1. From the Home page, select Configuration.

The System page is displayed with the General tab selected by
default, as shown in Figure 5 on page 38.

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

The Layer 2 page is displayed with the MAC Address tab shown by
default, as shown in Figure 25 on page 94.

3. Select the Spanning Tree tab.

The Spanning Tree tab is shown in Figure 124 on page 303.

4. Click Configure.
