Spanning Tree Protocol configuration
13
STP configurable parameters at the port or LAG level
You cannot configure Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) when adding a new LAG. STP can be configured
only after the LAG has been added to the switch.
Figure 123
shows the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) parameters that are configurable at the port or
LAG level.
The ports and the ports in a link aggregation group (LAG) for the selected switch must be in Layer 2
(L2) mode. If the ports or ports in a LAG are not in L2 mode, a yellow banner displays, indicating
Spanning Tree Protocol is disabled and the STP parameters are disabled as well.
NOTE
STP is not supported for internal ports on the 10 Gbps CEE/FC switch module. If an internal port is
selected, the Edit Port dialog box and Spanning Tree Protocol tab do not display, and the L3 interface
mode is unavailable.
