MULTILINK ML1200 MANAGED FIELD SWITCH – INSTRUCTION MANUAL 13–17

Once again, if you are not familiar with the STP or RSTP parameter settings, is best to use

the default values.

ZSimply enable RSTP (or STP) and let the system default values prevail.

After RSTP is enabled, the fields are updated.

ZNote the Status, Time since TC, and Designated Root values.
