| Nortel Networks Optivity Switch Manager for LAN Switch Networks Release 1.0.0.0 |
On a Passport 1000 Series switch or Passport 8600 modules you can create new STGs.
To create a new spanning tree group:
| The New STG dialog box opens. |
The following table describes the items in the New STG dialog box.
Id
A number between 1 and 25 that identifies the new spanning tree group (STG) configured on the network.
TaggedBpduAddress
Represents a MAC address, specifically for tagged BPDUs.
TaggedBpduVlanId
Represents the VLAN tag associated with the STG. This ID is used to tag BPDUs through a non-IEEE tagging bridge to another Passport or BayStack switch.
Priority
Sets the STP bridge priority, in decimal. The range is 0 (highest priority) to 65535 (lowest priority). The default is 32768.
BridgeMaxAge
The value in hundredths of a second that all bridges use for MaxAge when this bridge is acting as the root.
Note: The 802.1D-1990 standard specifies that the range for this parameter is related to the value of dot1dStpBridgeHelloTime. The default is 2000 (20 seconds).
BridgeHelloTime
The value in hundredths of a second that all bridges use for Hello Time when this bridge is acting as the root. The granularity of this timer is specified by the IEEE 802.1D-1990 standard to be in increments of 1/100 of a second. The default is 200 seconds.
BridgeForwardDelay
The value in hundredths of a second that all bridges use for Forward Delay when this bridge is acting as the root. The default is 1500 (15 seconds).
Enable Stp
Enables or disables the spanning tree algorithm for the spanning tree group.
Enable Stp Traps
Enables SNMP traps to be sent to trace receiver every time an STP topology change occurs.
On All Devices
Select all devices listed in the list. Otherwise, select the devices to be added to the STG.
