Displaying the Spanning-Tree Status
Note You cannot enable both loop guard and root guard at the same time.
You can enable this feature if your switch is running PVST+, rapid PVST+, or MSTP.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable loop guard. This procedure is optional.
To globally disable loop guard, use the no spanning-tree loopguard default global configuration
command. You can override the setting of the no spanning-tree loopguard default global configuration
command by using the spanning-tree guard loop interface configuration command on an NNI.
Displaying the Spanning-Tree Status
To display the spanning-tree status, use one or more of the privileged EXEC commands in Table 16-2:
You can clear spanning-tree counters by using the clear spanning-tree [interface interface-id]
privileged EXEC command.
For information about other keywords for the show spanning-tree privileged EXEC command, see the
