24-Port 10/100 + 2-Port Gigabit Switch with Webview and Power over Ethernet
Spanning Tree
The Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) can be used to detect and disable network loops, and to provide backup links
between switches, bridges or routers. This allows the switch to interact with other bridging devices (that is, an
STA-compliant switch, bridge or router) in your network to ensure that only one route exists between any two
stations on the network, and provide backup links which automatically take over when a primary link goes down
The Spanning Tree tab includes links to the following screens.
