Spanning Tree
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) ensures that only one path at a time is active between any two network nodes. There are maybe more than two physical path between any two nodes for redundant paths; STP ensures only one physical path is active and the others are blocked. STP will prevent an inadvertent loop in a network, which can disable your network due to a “Broadcast storm”, the result of a broadcast message traveling through the loop again and again.

Use the
Syntax

Where
<interval> = the STP hello interval. This number ranges from 1 – 10 seconds.
