-> bridge 455 protocol rstp
Note that when configuring the protocol value for a VLAN instance, MSTP is not an available option. This
protocol is only supported on the flat mode instance.
In addition, the explicit bridge 1x1 protocol command configures the protocol for a VLAN instance
regardless of which mode (1x1 or flat) is active on the switch. For example, the following command also
changes the protocol for VLAN 455 to RSTP:
-> bridge 1x1 455 protocol rstp
To configure the protocol for the single flat mode instance when the switch is running in either mode (1x1
or flat), use the bridge protocol command but do not specify an instance number. This command config-
ures the flat mode instance by default, so an instance number is not needed, as shown in the following
example:
-> bridge protocol mstp
As in previous releases, it is possible to configure the flat mode instance with the bridge protocol
command by specifying 1 as the instance number (e.g., bridge 1 protocol rstp). However, this is only
available when the switch is already running in the flat mode and STP or RSTP is the active protocol.
In addition, the explicit bridge cist protocol command configures the protocol for the flat mode instance
regardless of which mode (1x1 or flat) is active on the switch. For example, the following command
selects the RSTP protocol for the flat mode instance:
-> bridge cist protocol mstp
