5.16.5 STP protocol family (STP, RSTP, MSTP)
The main task of STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) is to convert Ethernet network with multiple links
into tree-like loop-free topology. Switches exchange configuration messages, using the special format
frames, and selectively enable or disable traffic transmission to ports.
Rapid STP (RSTP) is the enhanced version of STP protocol that enables faster network conversion to
the tree-like topology and provides higher stability.
Multiple STP (MSTP) is the most recent implementation of STP protocol, that support VLAN
utilization. Each instance may contain multiple VLAN groups. However, MSTP protocol has a drawback—all
MSTP-operating switches should have the same VLAN group configuration.
Multiprocess STP mechanism is designed for creation of independent STP/RSTP/MSTP trees on
device ports. State changes of a separate tree will not affect the state of other trees, that will allow to
increase the network stability and reduce the tree rebuild time in case of failures. During the
configuration, it is important to eliminate the possibility of loop formation for member ports of the
different trees. For isolated tree processing, the separate process is created for each tree in the system.
The process matches the device ports that belong to the tree.
Maximum allowed quantity of MSTP instances is given in Table 2.9.
