How to Configure Spanning Tree root bridge

How to Configure Spanning Tree root bridge Hi Today we going to talk about how to configure STP Root bridge, Root bridge election is happening with the switchers in the network, To become a root there should be some qualification among switchers, they are, bridge priority Lowest MAC default bridge priority is 32769 this is tie among switchers then root elect using lowest MAC to change default root configure switch like below Switch#conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line.

Introduction to Spanning Tree Protocol

Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) Hi After some brake today I gone to talk about spanning tree protocol or STP, When the network expand we need some redundant connection from switch to switch because of stop network fail. When we deal with redundant connection It automatically create loops. As a result of loops our network create broadcast storms . To prevent this we use STP. when we talking about STP we need to look at various features like Root port Designated port Block port Bridge Priority etc... STP is huge section in Networking from today we'll learn about this STP. My next lesson is how to identify this port types in STP. so keep in touch with me. Happy Learning !!!
