We are heavily using MSTP (with virtual region configurations) to secure redundant 60 GHz links with redundant slower paths.
In case of a failover event, we have observed that our Netonix WS series tends to lose the preferred CIST (root) path for a second or two before recovering the optimal path.
Is there a way to configure the STP interface options as follows to protect the CIST (root) and minimize malicious TC (topology change) floods?
For switch interconnection links:
- Code: Select all
stp point-to-point
For switch interconnection uplinks (to the STP CIST root):
- Code: Select all
stp loop-protection
For switch interconnection downlinks:
- Code: Select all
stp root-protection
For devices connected:
- Code: Select all
stp edge-port
For any other downlinks:
- Code: Select all
stp bpdu-filter
One more thing: We don’t need these features in the Web UI; terminal configuration would be fine.
Thanks
