STP Configuration Between Cisco and HP

Hi

We are in a progress where we have to connect the HP Switches to the Cisco Switches on the Distribution Layer.

On Distribution Layer the Spanning Tree Protocol we are running is PVRSTP+. Now as per our recent studies, we have figured out that the HP Switches does not support/interoperate with Cisco PVRSTP+. Now we have number of options to overcome this issue.

1. Downgrade from PVRSTP+ to MSTP or RSTP.

2. Switch off the spanning tree on HP Switches as well as VLANs on Cisco those will be extended to HP Switches.

The question is does anyone has experience where both Vendors are running together with the setup which I have currently running i.e. Cisco PVRSTP+ as Primary Root? If yes than if possible configuraiton can be shared?

Thanks in advance
