Table 1 STP/RSTP configuration tasks

Task

Description

Configuring STP/RSTP

Configure STP/RSTP on devices on a network to trim the network into a tree topology free from loops.

Configuring STP/RSTP Parameters That Affect the STP/RSTP Convergence Speed

The network diameter, timeout interval, Hello timer, Max Age timer, and Forward Delay timer affect STP/RSTP convergence. Proper settings of these parameters can speed up the convergence speed.

RSTP supports link type configuration and fast transition configuration on ports to implement rapid convergence.

Configuring RSTP Protection Functions

You can configure one or more RSTP protection functions on a Huawei device.

Configuring Parameters for Interoperation Between Huawei and Non-Huawei Devices

To implement interoperation between a Huawei device and a non-Huawei device, select the fast transition mode based on the Proposal/Agreement mechanism of the non-Huawei device.
