8.3.5.6MSTP Protocol

MSTP protocol has a backward compatibility. MSTP is compatible with STP and RSTP. If some other bridge runs with STP mode and send BPDU version of STP or RSTP, MSTP automatically changes to STP mode. STP mode can not be changed to MSTP mode automatically. If administrator wants to change network topology to MSTP mode, adminis- trator has to clear previous detected protocol manually.

To configure the protocol, use the following command.

Command	Mode	Description
stp clear-detected-protocol		Clears detected protocol and trys administrative proto-
	Bridge	col.
PORTS
		PORTS: select the port number.

8.3.5.7Point-to-point MAC Parameters

The internal sub layer service makes available a pair of parameters that permit inspection of, and control over, the administrative and operational state of the point-to-point status of the MAC entity by the MAC relay entity.

To configure the point-to-point status, use the following command.

Command	Mode	Description
		Sets point-to-point MAC:
		PORTS: select the port number
stp point-to-point-mac PORTS	Bridge	auto: auto detect
{auto force-true force-false}		force-true: force to point-to-point MAC
		force-false: force to shared MAC (not point-to point
		MAC)

True means, the MAC is connected to a point-to-point LAN, i.e., there is at most one other system attached to the LAN. False means, the MAC is connected to a non point-to- point LAN, i.e., there can be more than one other system attached to the LAN.

To delete the point-to-point configuration, use the following command.

Command	Mode	Description
no stp point-to-point-mac PORT	Bridge	Deletes point-to-point MAC configuration:
		PORT: select the port number.

8.3.5.8Edge Ports

Edge ports are used for connecting end devices. There are no switches or spanning-tree bridges after the edge port.

To configure edge port mode, use the following command.

Command	Mode	Description
stp edge-port PORTS	Bridge	Sets port edge mode:
		PORTS: select the port number.
