Configuring the Spanning Tree Parameters
Access points automatically configure themselves into a self-organized
network using a spanning tree topology. As devices are added to or
removed from the network, the access points automatically reconfigure
to maintain reliable operation. The spanning tree provides efficient,
loop-free forwarding of frames through the network and allows rapid
roaming of wireless end devices.
To configure the spanning tree parameters, perform the following
procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, select Spanning Tree Settings. The Spanning
Tree Settings screen as shown in Figure 28 is displayed.
