Displaying PVST Information

To display PVST information, use the following CLI method.

USING THE CLI

To display PVST information for ports on an HP device, enter the following command at any level of the CLI:

HP 9304M or HP 9308M(config)# show span pvst-mode

VLAN

Port

PVST

PVST

ID

Num.

Cfg.

On(by cfg. or detect)

200

10

0

1

200

11

1

1

This example shows that for VLAN 200, PVST support is statically enabled on port 11. PVST is not statically enabled on Port 10, but because port 10 received an incoming PVST BPDU on its interface, the port converted to using PVST mode.

Syntax: show span pvst-mode

The show span pvst-modecommand displays the following information.
