Avaya 1600 manual Enabling STP globally

5.Repeat steps 1-4 for each port for which you want to disable RIP poisoned reverse.

You must restart the PARTNER ACS 1600 DSL module for any changes to take effect. For more information on restarting the PARTNER ACS 1600 DSL module, see the “Getting started” chapter.

Enabling STP

Having many bridges creates the potential for network loops. A loop presents conflicting information about the segment on which a specific address is located and forces the bridge to forward all data.

When you enable STP, the PARTNER ACS 1600 DSL module reconfigures the bridge network to channel data along an optimum route to its destination.

To configure the PARTNER ACS 1600 DSL module as a bridge, you must enable STP both globally and by port.

Enabling STP globally

To enable STP globally:

1.On the Main Menu, select Configure Bridge.

The Bridge Configuration Menu displays.
