Hello, everyone. I have some questions regarding LACP F-Switchover. Here is my topology: From my understanding, LACP Fast-Switchover can be used in situations where we have a 1:1 redundancy. So we basically have one port in the EC (Etherchannel) for...

Hello, everyone. I am studying MSTP and I was configuring regions. I would therefore like to verify whether my understanding of them is correct since I wasn't quite sure what was the point of them at first, but now I believe I understand. When it com...

Hello, everyone. I've just started with MSTP so I started on viewing and reinforcing topics that I already know from the previous STP/RSTP versions by examining the MSTP BPDU. However, the structure of it confuses me a little. I have this simple MSTP...

Hello, everyone. I am studying about Loop Guard at the moment and I came across this Cisco Doc. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/lan-switching/spanning-tree-protocol-stp-8021d/218321-configure-stp-with-loop-guard-and-bpdu-s.html Where the f...

Hello, everyone My resources mention that in RSTP, all switches generate BPDUs which is different from a classic STP operation where only the root bridge does so. However, in Cisco CML, I only see the root bridge generating the BPDUs and the switches...

That's a great explanation, I appreciate your help here. I just wanted to know one extra thing regarding the first question. Would this cause any problems if there were more links in the bundle and F-Switchover was configured? Since I've only ever se...

Hello. I've often seen this recommended in scenarios where you have a max-bundle set to 1 link so 1 link is active and one is standby. Would this cause any problems if there were more links in the bundle and F-Switchover was configured? David

Absolutely! I appreciate your help and tips here guys!

Hello. I am studying for a certification exam (ENCOR) so STP is something I have to cover. I look forward to seeing the L3 topologies.

Thank you for the links. I do have a few questions. At first when the STP topology is being built, there's no confirmation that everyone has agreed on what the STP topology should be, etc. Switches have to perform their port role selection, send out ...
