Networks that have a complicated architecture are prone to broadcast storms caused by unintended loops in the network The NPort S8455I MM SC s STP feature is disabled by default To be completely effective you must enable RSTP STP on every NPort S8455I MM SC connected to your network Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol RSTP implements the Spanning Tree Algorithm and Protocol defined by IEEE Std 802 1w 2001 RSTP provides the following benefits e The topology of a bridged network will be determined much more quickly compared to STP e RSTP is backward compatible with STP making it relatively easy to deploy For example gt Defaults to sending 802 1D style BPDUs if packets with this format are received gt STP 802 1D and RSTP 802 1 w can operate on different ports of the same NPort S8455I MM SC This feature is particularly helpful when the NPort S8455I MM SC s ports connect to older equipment such as legacy switches You get essentially the same functionality with RSTP and STP To see how the two systems differ see the Differences between RSTP and STP section in this chapter NOTE The STP protocol is part of the IEEE Std 802 1D 1998 Edition bridge specification The following explanation uses bridge instead of switch What is STP STP 802 1D is a bridge based system that is used to implement parallel paths for network traffic STP uses a loop detection process to Locate and then disable less efficient paths i e pat

Functions STP Reconfiguration Once the network topology has stabilized each bridge listens for Hello BPDUs transmitted from the Root Bridge at regular intervals If a bridge does not receive a Hello BPDU after a certain interval the Max Age time the bridge assumes that the Root Bridge or a link between itself and the Root Bridge has gone down This will trigger the bridge to reconfigure the network to account for the change If you have configured an SNMP trap destination when the topology of your network changes the first bridge to detect the change sends out an SNMP trap Differences between RSTP and STP RSTP is similar to STP but includes additional information in the BPDUs that allow each bridge to confirm that it has taken action to prevent loops from forming when it decides to enable a link to a neighboring bridge Adjacent bridges connected via point to point links will be able to enable a link without waiting to ensure that all other bridges in the network have had time to react to the change The main benefit of RSTP is that the configuration decision is made locally rather than network wide allowing RSTP to carry out automatic configuration and restore a link faster than STP STP Example The LAN shown in the following figure has three segments with adjacent segments connected using two possible links The various STP factors such as Cost Root Port Designated Bridge Port and Blocked Port are shown in the figure

42. User s Manual Switch Featured Functions How STP Works When enabled STP determines the most appropriate path for traffic through a network The way it does this is outlined in the sections below STP Requirements Before STP can configure the network the system must satisfy the following requirements e Communication between all the bridges This communication is carried out using Bridge Protocol Data Units BPDUs which are transmitted in packets with a known multicast address e Each bridge must have a Bridge Identifier that specifies which bridge acts as the central reference point or Root Bridge for the STP system bridges with a lower Bridge Identifier are more likely to be designated as the Root Bridge The Bridge Identifier is calculated using the MAC address of the bridge and a priority defined for the bridge The default priority of the NPort S8455I MM SC is 32768 e Each port has a cost that specifies the efficiency of each link The efficiency cost is usually determined by the bandwidth of the link with less efficient links assigned a higher cost The following table shows the default port costs for a switch Port Speed Path Cost 802 1D Path Cost 1998 Edition 802 1w 2001 10 Mbps 100 2 000 000 100 Mbps 19 200 000 1000 Mbps 4 20 000 STP Calculation The first step of the STP process is to perform calculations During this stage each bridge on the network transmits BPDUs The follow

Y to B 200 B to A 100 The Designated Bridge Port for LAN Segment 3 is Port 2 on Bridge C Using STP on a Network with Multiple VLANs IEEE Std 802 1D 1998 Edition does not take into account VLANs when calculating STP information the calculations only depend on the physical connections Consequently some network configurations will result in VLANs being subdivided into a number of isolated sections by the STP system You must ensure that every VLAN configuration on your network takes into account the expected STP topology and alternative topologies that may result from link failures The following figure shows an example of a network that contains VLANs 1 and 2 The VLANs are connected using the 802 1Q tagged link between Switch B and Switch C By default this link has a port cost of 100 and is automatically blocked because the other Switch to Switch connections have a port cost of 36 18 18 This means that both VLANs are now subdivided VLAN 1 on Switch units A and B cannot communicate with VLAN 1 on Switch C and VLAN 2 on Switch units A and C cannot communicate with VLAN 2 on Switch B NPort S8000 A 100BaseTX full duplex Link only carries VLAN2 path cost 18 100BaseTX full duplex Link only carries VLAN1 path cost 18 NPort 8000 B NPort S8000 C Block 802 1Q tagged 10BaseTx half duplex Link carries VLAN1 2 path cost 100 To avoid subdividing VLANs all inter switch connections s

TCP IP protocol software to try to pack serial data received during the specified time into the same data frame This parameter defines the time interval during which the NPort fetches the serial data from its internal buffer If data is incoming through the serial port the NPort stores the data in the internal buffer The NPort transmits data stored in the buffer via TCP IP but only if the internal buffer is full or if the force transmit time interval reaches the time specified under Force Transmit timeout Optimal force transmit timeout differs according to your application but it must be at least larger than one character interval within the specified baudrate For example assume that the serial port is set to 1200 bps 8 data bits 1 stop bit and no parity In this case the total number of bits needed to send a character is 10 bits and the time required to transfer one character is 10 bits 1200 bits s 1000 ms s 8 3 ms Therefore you should set Force Transmit timeout to be larger than 8 3 ms Force Transmit timeout is specified in milliseconds and must be larger than 10 ms If the user wants to send the series of characters in a packet the serial device attached to the NPort should send characters without time delay larger than Force Transmit timeout between characters and the total length of data must be smaller than or equal to the NPort s internal buffer size The serial communication buffer size of the NPort is 1 Kbytes
