This example shows how to prevent a port from automatically interoperating with a connecting device that
is running Rapid PVST+:
Switch(config)# interface1/0/1
Switch(config-if)# spanning-tree mst simulate pvst disable
The following sample output shows the system message you receive when a SSTP BPDU is received on a
port and PVST+ simulation is disabled:
Message
SPANTREE_PVST_PEER_BLOCK: PVST BPDU detected on port %s [port number].
Severity
Critical
Explanation
A PVST+ peer was detected on the specified interface on the switch. PVST+
simulation feature is disabled, as a result of which the interface was
moved to the spanning tree
Blocking state.
Action
Identify the PVST+ switch from the network which might be configured
incorrectly.
The following sample output shows the system message you receive when peer inconsistency on the interface
is cleared:
Message
SPANTREE_PVST_PEER_UNBLOCK: Unblocking port %s [port number].
Severity
Critical
Explanation
The interface specified in the error message has been restored to normal
spanning tree state.
Action
None.
This example shows the spanning tree status when port 1/0/1 has been configured to disable PVST+ simulation
and is currently in the peer type inconsistent state:
