Hey there,


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
