enable mstp port={port-listall}

disable mstp port={port-listall}

These commands enable or disable MSTP on the specified ports for the CIST and

all currently-configured MSTIs, in a single step.

Previously, this operation required two commands. For example, you can now use

enable mstp port={port-listall}instead of the following commands:

enable mstp cist port={port-listall}

enable mstp msti=instance port={port-listall}

the destination address, it broadcasts an ARP Request message over the egress IP

interface. If it does not receive a reply within a short time, it notifies the sending

device that the destination was unknown.

This enhancement lets you configure how long the router or switch waits for a

response. Use the following new command to specify the timeout period in

seconds:

set ip arpwaittimeout=1..30

The default is 1 second. You may need to increase the timeout period if you are

communicating with devices that are slow to respond.

The easiest way to see the effect is to ping an unavailable device. The timeout

determines the delay between pinging an IP address and receiving the reply that

the device is unreachable.
