Last week I offered my students a test in PacketTracer.Part of the assessment was a topology with three 2960 L2 switches, where S2 was configured as VTP server, distributing vlan 10,20,30 and 40. S1 and S3 configured as VTP client.Links between the s...

I learned that root guard must be enabled on a switch that is prone to be overtaken by a switch with a lower priority number (so more likely to become the root bridge). However the switch that is prone to be overtaken by a better priority switch, doe...

I am puzzling with a redundant setup with HSRP. (See image in attachment).There are three pc's connected to a switch. One pc in VLAN 10, one pc in VLAN 20 and the last one in VLAN 30.Out of the switch there are two ports (g0/1 and g0/2) connected to ...

When I am using multiple VLAN's in spanning-tree, the link light will only become orange in PT when VLAN 1 is included. I have spanning tree only enabled on trunks. I disable spanning-tree with bpduguard and portfast on access ports. All ports on the...

So I understand the primary reason for my wrong assumption is that SW-A will have error-disable ports when it reboots or fails and therefore it is better to root guard a switch that is not primary or secondary root bridge. If SW-C fails or reboots, i...

Great explanation. But I'm also confused now. I learned that a loop-free network using spanning-tree is very important in redundant network design. Will portfast on trunks lead to more network-loops?

Can I summarize that spanning-tree portfast trunk is not recommended, but sometimes inevitable?

Thanks! However I don't understand why I should configure a switchport which links to a router as spanning-tree portfast trunk. Maybe if there is a dhcp pool configured on the router that has timing issues when a switchport is in non portfast mode?
