Spanning Tree Protocol Commands
This chapter provides a description, syntax, and examples of the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) and Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) commands. It includes the following commands:
bridge cisco-interoperability
Use this command to enable/disable Cisco interoperability for MSTP (Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol).
If Cisco interoperability is required, all OcNOS devices in the switched LAN must be Cisco-interoperability enabled. When OcNOS inter operates with Cisco, the only criteria used to classify a region are the region name and revision level. VLAN-to-instance mapping is not used to classify regions when interoperating with Cisco.

(config)#bridge 1 spanning-tree errdisable-timeout enable
 
bridge spanning-tree force-version
Use this command to set the version for the bridge. A version identifier of less than a value of 2 enforces the spanning tree protocol. Although the command supports an input range of 0-4, for RSTP, the valid range is 0-2. When the force-version is set for a bridge, all ports of the bridge have the same spanning tree version set.
Use the show spanning tree command to display administratively configured and currently running values of the BPDU filter parameter for the bridge and port (see show spanning-tree).
Use the no parameter with this command to disable the version for the bridge.
Command Syntax
bridge <1-32> spanning-tree force-version <0-4>
no bridge <1-32> spanning-tree force-version
Parameters
<1-32>
Specify the bridge group ID.
force-version
Specify a force version identifier:
0
STP
1
Not supported
2
RSTP
3
MSTP
Default
By default, spanning tree force version is 0
Command Mode
Configure mode
Applicability
This command was introduced before OcNOS version 1.3.
Examples
Set the value to enforce the spanning tree protocol:
#configure terminal
(config)#bridge 1 spanning-tree force-version 0
 
(config)#no bridge 1 spanning-tree force-version
bridge spanning-tree pathcost
Use this command to set a spanning-tree path cost method.
If the short parameter is used, the switch uses a value for the default path cost a number in the range 1 through 65,535. If the long parameter is used, the switch uses a value for the default path cost a number in the range 1 through 200,000,000. Use the show spanning-tree to view the administratively configured and current running pathcost method running on a bridge.
Use the no option with this command to return the path cost method to the default setting.
Command Syntax
bridge <1-32> spanning-tree pathcost method (short|long)
no bridge <1-32> spanning-tree pathcost method
Parameters
<1-32>
Specify the bridge group ID.
method
Method used to calculate default port path cost.
long
Use 16-bit based values for default port path costs.
short
Use 32-bit based values for default port path costs.
Default
By default, path cost method for STP is short and for MSTP/RSTP is long.
Command Mode
Configure mode
Applicability
This command was introduced before OcNOS version 1.3.
Examples
#configure terminal
(config)#bridge 1 spanning-tree pathcost method short
 
(config)#no bridge 1 spanning-tree pathcost method
bridge spanning-tree portfast
Use this command to set the portfast BPDU (Bridge Protocol Data Unit) guard or filter for the bridge.
Use the show spanning tree command to display administratively configured and currently running values of the BPDU filter parameter for the bridge and port (see show spanning-tree).
Use the no parameter with this command to disable the BPDU filter for the bridge.
BPDU Filter
All ports that have their BPDU filter set to default take the same value of BPDU filter as that of the bridge. The Spanning Tree Protocol sends BPDUs from all ports. Enabling the BPDU Filter feature ensures that PortFast-enabled ports do not transmit or receive any BPDUs.
Note: On BPDU-Filter enabled port when BPDU is received the interface loses its port-fast operational status and re-enable the spanning-tree operation. Hence the "spanning-tree portfast" is removed from the interface which is an expected behavior.
BPDU Guard
When the BPDU guard feature is set for a bridge, all portfast-enabled ports of the bridge that have the BPDU guard set to default shut down the port on receiving a BPDU. In this case, the BPDU is not processed. You can either bring the port back up manually by using the no shutdown command, or configure the errdisable-timeout feature to enable the port after the specified time interval.
Command Syntax
bridge <1-32> spanning-tree portfast bpdu-guard
bridge <1-32> spanning-tree portfast bpdu-filter
no bridge <1-32> spanning-tree portfast bpdu-guard
no bridge <1-32> spanning-tree portfast bpdu-filter
Parameters
<1-32>
Specify the bridge group ID.
bpdu-filter
Specify to filter the BPDUs on portfast enabled ports.
bpdu-guard
Specify to guard the portfast ports against BPDU receive.
Default
By default, portfast for STP is enabled
Command Mode
Configure mode
Applicability
This command was introduced before OcNOS version 1.3.
Example
#configure terminal
(config)#bridge 3 spanning-tree portfast bpdu-filter
 
#configure terminal
(config)#bridge 1 spanning-tree portfast bpdu-guard
bridge te-msti
Use this command to enable or disable a Multiple Spanning Tree Instance (MSTI).
The te-msti always refers to the MST instance indexed by the pre-defined macro constant MSTP_TE_MSTID internally. This is the only MST instance which supports the disabling of spanning trees.
Use the no form of this command to remove the configuration.
Command Syntax
bridge (<1-32> | backbone) te-msti
no bridge (<1-32> | backbone) te-msti
Parameters
<1-32>
Specify the bridge group ID.
backbone
Identity of the backbone bridge group.
te-msti
MSTI to be the traffic engineering MSTI instance.
Default
By default, bridge te-msti is disabled
Command Mode
TE-MSTI Configure mode
Applicability
This command was introduced before OcNOS version 1.3.
Examples
#configure terminal
(config)#spanning-tree te-msti configuration
(config-te-msti)#bridge 2 te-msti
 
(config-te-msti)#no bridge 2 te-msti
 
bridge te-msti vlan
Use this command to enable or disable a Multiple Spanning Tree Instance (MSTI). When an MSTI is shutdown (disabled) each VLAN in the MSTI is set to the forwarding state on all bridge ports which the VLAN as a member of. When and MSTI is enabled (no shutdown), normal MSTP operation is started for the MSTI.
The te-msti always refers to the MST instance indexed by the pre-defined macro constant MSTP_TE_MSTID internally. This is the only MST instance which supports the disabling of spanning trees. All VLANs that do not want spanning tree topology computation need to be assigned to this te-msti instance.
This command is intended for supporting Traffic Engineering (TE) Ethernet tunnels. All VLANs allocated for traffic engineering should be assigned to one MSTI. That MSTI can in turn shutdown the spanning tree operation so that each VLAN path through the network can be manually provisioned.
Use the no form of this command to remove the configuration.
Command Syntax
bridge (<1-32> | backbone) te-msti vlan <1-4094>
no bridge (<1-32> | backbone) te-msti vlan <1-4094>
Parameters
<1-32>
Specify the bridge group ID.
backbone
Identity of the backbone bridge group.
vlan
Specify a VLAN.
<1-4094>
Specify a VLAN identifier to be associated.
Note: This designated instance is defined in 802.1Qay clause 8.9 to be 0xFFE.
Default
By default, te-msti vlan is vlan1.
Command Mode

Command Syntax
customer-spanning-tree customer-edge priority <0-240>
Parameters
priority
Specify the port priority.
<0-240>
Specify the port priority range (a lower priority indicates greater likelihood of the interface becoming a root). The priority values can only be set in increments of 16.
Default
By default, priority is 1
Command Mode

(config-if)#customer-spanning-tree customer-edge priority 100
customer-spanning-tree forward-time
Use this command to set the time (in seconds) after which (if this bridge is the root bridge) each port changes states to learning and forwarding. This value is used by all instances.
Use the no form of this command to restore the default value of 15 seconds.
Command Syntax
customer-spanning-tree forward-time <4-30>
no customer-spanning-tree forward-time
Parameters
<4-30>
Specify the forwarding time delay in seconds.
Note: Care should be exercised if the value is set to less than 7 seconds.
Default
By default, priority is 15 seconds
Command Mode
Interface mode
Applicability
This command was introduced before OcNOS version 1.3.
Examples
#configure terminal
(config)#interface eth1
(config-if)#customer-spanning-tree forward-time 6
 
(config-if)#no customer-spanning-tree forward-time
customer-spanning-tree hello-time
Use this command to set the hello-time, the time in seconds after which (if this bridge is the root bridge) all the bridges in a bridged LAN exchange Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDUs). Avoid a very low value of this parameter as this can lead to excessive traffic on the network; a higher value delays the detection of topology change. This value is used by all instances.
Use the no option with this command to restore the default value of the hello-time.
Command Syntax
customer-spanning-tree hello-time <1-10>
no customer-spanning-tree hello-time
Parameters
<1-10>
Specify the hello BPDU interval in seconds.
Default
By default, level is 2 seconds
Command Mode
Interface mode
Applicability
This command was introduced before OcNOS version 1.3.
Examples
#configure terminal

(config-if)#customer-spanning-tree hello-time 3
 
(config-if)#no customer-spanning-tree hello-time
customer-spanning-tree max-age
Use this command to set the max-age for a bridge.
Max-age is the maximum time in seconds for which (if a bridge is the root bridge) a message is considered valid. This prevents the frames from looping indefinitely. The value of max-age should be greater than twice the value of hello-time plus one, but less than twice the value of forward delay minus one. The allowable range for max-age is 6-40 seconds. Configure this value sufficiently high, so that a frame generated by a root can be propagated to the leaf nodes without exceeding the max-age.
Use the no parameter with this command to restore the default value of max-age.
Command Syntax
customer-spanning-tree max-age <6-40>
no customer-spanning-tree max-age
Parameters
<6-40>
Specify the maximum time in seconds to listen for the root bridge.
Default
By default, bridge max-age is 20 seconds

storm-control
Use this command to set the rising threshold level for broadcast, multicast, or destination lookup failure traffic. The storm control action occurs when traffic utilization reaches this level.
Storm control is used to block the forwarding of unnecessary flooded traffic. A packet storm occurs when a large number of broadcast packets are received on a port. Forwarding these packets can cause the network to slow down or time out.
Use the no form of this command to disable storm control.
Note: Minimum granularity for storm-control is 64kbps.
Command Syntax
storm-control (broadcast|multicast|dlf) (level LEVEL | <0-1000000000> (kbps|mbps|gbps))
no storm-control (broadcast|multicast|dlf)
Parameters
broadcast
Broadcast rate limiting.
multicast
Multicast rate limiting.
dlf
Destination lookup failure limiting.
level
Sets the percentage of the threshold.
LEVEL
The percentage of the threshold; percentage of the maximum speed (pps) of the interface <0.0000-1000.0000>.
<0-1000000000>
Sets absolute threshold value <0-1000000000>
kbps
specifies the units of Kilobits per second.
mbps
specifies the units of Megabits per second.
gbps
specifies the units of Gigabits per second.
Default
By default, storm control is disabled
Command Mode
Interface mode
Applicability
This command was introduced before OcNOS version 1.3.
