Hi
We have nortel 5650 running rstp stack with a single link to cisco 3560 which is a 3rd party switch running pvst with vlan 1 and 2.
On the Cisco port the Nortel connects to it goes orange for about 20 seconds so portfast isn't enabled. On the Nortel the spanning-tree is all defaults.
When I plug in the Nortel to the Cisco the network goes down and switches flash like mad. So spanning-tree is kicking off.
Do I need to put any configuration on the Cisco port or nortel port for the up link?

Hi Craig,
How many Cisco switches are there in your network?
Can you please change the PVST mode to RSTP on Cisco and then connect te nortal switch?
