Chapter 27: MSTP Commands

SET MSTP

Syntax

set mstp [default] [forceversion=stpcompatibleforcestpcompatible normalmstp] [hellotime=hellotime] [forwarddelay=forwarddelay] [maxage=maxage] [maxhops=maxhops] [configname=”name”] [revisionlevel=number]

Parameters

 

 

default

Disables MSTP and returns all bridge and port MSTP

 

settings to the default values. This parameter cannot

 

be used with any other parameter. (This parameter

 

performs the same function as the RESET MSTP

 

command.) The spanning tree protocol must be

 

disabled to use this parameter.

forceversion

Controls whether the bridge will operate with

 

MSTP or in an STP-compatible mode. If you select

 

MSTP, the bridge will operate all ports in MSTP,

 

except for those ports that receive STP or RSTP

 

BPDU packets. If you select STP Compatible or

 

Force STP Compatible, the bridge uses its MSTP

 

parameter settings, but sends only STP BPDU

 

packets from the ports

 

The options are:

 

 

stpcompatible

The bridge uses the MSTP

 

 

parameter settings, but

 

 

transmits only STP BPDU

 

 

packets from the ports. This

 

 

option is equivalent to the

 

 

FORCESTPCOMPATIBLE

 

 

option.

 

forcestpcompatible

The bridge uses the MSTP

 

 

parameter settings, but

transmits only STP BPDU packets from the ports. This option is equivalent to the STPCOMPATIBLE option.
