Configuration Task Summary
This section describes the configuration task and logic of MSTP.
Table 5-46 lists the configuration task summary of MSTP.
| Item | Description | Task |
|---|---|---|
Configuring Basic MSTP Functions |
MSTP is commonly configured on switching devices to trim a ring network to a loop-free network. Devices start spanning tree calculation after the working mode is set and MSTP is enabled. Use any of the following methods if you need to intervene
in the spanning tree calculation:
|
|
Configuring MSTP Multi-Process |
On a network with Layer 2 single-access rings and multi-access rings deployed, configure multiple MSTP processes so that spanning trees of different processes are calculated independently and do not affect each other. |
|
Configuring MSTP Parameters on an Interface |
Proper MSTP parameter settings achieve rapid convergence. |
|
Configuring MSTP Protection Functions |
This section describes how to configure MSTP protection functions. You can configure one or more functions. |
|
Configuring MSTP Interoperability Between Huawei Devices and Non-Huawei Devices |
To communicate with a non-Huawei device, set proper parameters on the MSTP-enabled Huawei device. |
