Description

You can configure a switch with VLAN Spanning Tree Protocol (VSTP) or per-VLAN Spanning Tree on MIST.

Symptoms

We recommend enabling this feature for other vendor’s devices (for example, Cisco) that operate per-VLAN spanning tree by default.

Solution

  • This configuration is available in port profiles in the organization and site templates and on the switch details page.


  • VSTP helps in preventing loops in Layer 2 networks on a per-VLAN basis.


  • One Spanning Tree per VLAN enables fine grain load balancing.


  • When VSTP is enabled on a port, RSTP is automatically disabled on that port.
