switch#
c. Follow the root port toward the root bridge.
Remember that a switch has only one root port, and that port leads toward the
root bridge. A switch can have many designated ports, and those lead away from
the root bridge. Our goal is to find the neighboring switch that connects to the
root port.
IOS shows the root port as a logical port number (port 67). The port number is an
index into the interfaces according to the STP. You can either page through the out-
put until you find the interface with the port number, or you can use the EXEC
command show spanning-tree brief | begin VLANvlan to see only the port num-
ber associated with the specific VLAN number. An example of this follows:
switch# show spanning-tree brief | begin VLAN534
