Spanning Tree Configuration Tips
To ensure proper operation with switches that use Cisco Per VLAN Spanning Tree (PVST+), you must do one of the following:
Create a separate Spanning Tree Group for each VLAN.
Manually add all associated VLANs into a single Spanning Tree Group.
When using Layer 2 Trunk Failover, disable Spanning Tree Protocol on external ports.

FTP/TFTP Directory Path
When you use the CLI to perform a FTP/TFTP file transfer, you cannot use a forward slash ( / ) in the directory path, unless it is preceded by a back slash ( \ ). This issue occurs only when a full command is issued on one line.
For example, the following is invalid:
#/boot/gtimg 1 10.10.10.2 image_directory/filename
The following is correct:
# /boot/gtimg 1 10.10.10.2 image_directory\/filename
