Port STA State | The state of the port in terms of the Spanning Tree | |
| Protocol. The possible states are: | |
| • Disabled - The port is disabled. | |
| • Blocking - STP is enabled and currently | |
|
| blocking the port. This means that the port is |
|
| effectively disabled to prevent the formation of a |
|
| loop in the network. |
| • Forwarding - The port is currently forwarding | |
|
| information received. |
| For more information refer to Spanning Tree | |
| Algorithm (STA) on page 27 of The Reference Guide. | |

| module to which it is attached and port connector | |

Propagate Status | The state of status propagation on the port or | |
| module. When enabled, the status of a port or | |
| module is passed up one level. | |
| For example, when the Propagate Status field of a | |
| problematic port is enabled, the port’s icon as well | |
| as the module that the port is located on appears | |
| red. If Propagate Status is disabled, only the port | |
| icon appears red. | |
| The following colors indicate the status of the port | |
| or module: | |
| • | Red - Fatal |
| • Grey - Disabled (port only) | |
| • | Yellow - Warning |
| • | Green - Okay |
| By default, status propagation is enabled for all | |
| ports and modules. | |
