Disabling Spanning Tree Mode for the Port
You can disable Spanning Tree mode for the port from either the
Web Agent or the CLI.
* Notes: When disabling the Spanning Tree Protocol for a port,
BPDUs received on that port are ignored and are not
generated. The port moves directly into the forwarding
state from the disabled state and does not trigger a
topology detection change.
It is recommended that you set Spanning Tree to per-
VLAN for IEEE 802.1Q or Multi-Layer trunking modes,
trunked ports. This prevents an entire link from being
blocked when there is a loop in one VLAN.
If you have an ATM Uplink module installed, and there
is a loop through the uplink, the ATM Uplink module
does not function properly if you use IEEE802.1D.
