Section IV: Spanning Tree Protocols

Enabling MSTP

The AT-9400 Series 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.

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 123 on page 302.

3. Select the Spanning Tree tab.

The Spanning Tree tab is shown in Figure 135.
