Function

 

 

 

 

spanning-tree link-type

Syntax:

 

This command configures the

spanning-tree link-type {auto point-to-point shared}

 

link type for Rapid Spanning

no spanning-tree link-type

 

• auto - Automatically derived from the duplex mode setting.

 

Tree.

 

• point-to-point - Point-to-point link.

 

Use the no form to restore the

 

• shared - Shared medium.

 

default.

 

 

Default Setting: auto

 

 

Command Mode: Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)

 

 

Command Usage: Specify a point-to-point link if the interface can only be

 

 

connected to exactly one other bridge, or a shared link if it can be con-

 

 

nected to two or more bridges.

 

 

When automatic detection is selected, the switch derives the link type from

 

 

the duplex mode. A full-duplex interface is considered a point-to-point link,

 

 

while a half-duplex interface is assumed to be on a shared link.

 

 

RSTP only works on point-to-point links between two bridges. If you desig-

 

 

nate a port as a shared link, RSTP is forbidden.

 

 

Example:

 

 

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5

 

 

Console(config-if)#spanning-tree link-type point-to-point

 

 

 

 

spanning-tree protocol-

Syntax:

 

migration

spanning-tree protocol-migration interface

 

This command re-checks the

• interface

 

appropriate BPDU format to

ethernet unit/port

 

send on the selected interface.

unit - Stack unit. (Range: 1-8)

 

 

 

 

port - Port number. (Range: 1-26)

 

 

port-channel channel-id (Range: 1-6)

 

 

Command Mode: Privileged Exec

 

 

Command Usage: If at any time the switch detects STP BPDUs, including

 

 

Configuration or Topology Change Notification BPDUs, it will automatically

 

 

set the selected interface to forced STP-compatible mode. However, you

 

 

can also use the spanning-tree protocol-migration command at any time to

 

 

manually re-check the appropriate BPDU format to send on the selected

 

 

interfaces (i.e., RSTP or STP-compatible).

 

 

Example:

 

 

Console#spanning-tree protocol-migration ethernet 1/5

 

 

Console#

NXA-ENET24 specifications

The AMX NXA-ENET24 is a versatile and powerful networked control interface designed to meet the growing demands of modern AV systems. This network switch offers an exceptional combination of reliability, performance, and scalability, making it an ideal choice for professional environments such as conference rooms, educational facilities, and control rooms.

One of the key features of the NXA-ENET24 is its 24-port configuration, allowing for extensive connectivity options. Each port supports 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds, ensuring that high bandwidth applications are handled with ease. Additionally, the switch incorporates advanced auto-negotiation technology, which automatically configures the optimal speed and duplex mode for connected devices. This ensures seamless connectivity and minimizes the risk of network disruptions.

The NXA-ENET24 is designed with advanced management capabilities, including support for VLANs, which helps to segment network traffic for enhanced security and performance. Network administrators can easily create virtual local area networks to optimize traffic flow and reduce congestion. This feature is particularly beneficial in environments where multiple AV systems operate concurrently.

Another significant characteristic of the NXA-ENET24 is its support for Power over Ethernet, or PoE. This feature enables the switch to deliver electrical power alongside data through the network cables. As a result, devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points can be powered directly from the switch, simplifying deployment and reducing the need for additional power sources.

Monitoring and management of the switch are made easier through a user-friendly interface. The NXA-ENET24 supports SNMP for network management, allowing users to monitor performance metrics, configure settings, and receive alerts in case of issues. This level of oversight is crucial for maintaining the stability of AV systems in mission-critical applications.

Durability is another hallmark of the NXA-ENET24 design. The switch features a robust chassis that is engineered to withstand the rigors of professional use. With cooling mechanisms in place and a fanless design, the NXA-ENET24 operates quietly and efficiently, making it suitable for environments where noise is a concern.

In conclusion, the AMX NXA-ENET24 is a powerful, reliable, and feature-rich network switch that effectively supports modern AV applications. With its extensive connectivity options, advanced management capabilities, PoE support, and durable design, it is an excellent choice for integrators and organizations looking to optimize their network infrastructure.
