spanning-tree
loopback-detection
release
This command manually releases a port placed in discarding state by
loopback-detection.
SYNTAX
spanning-tree loopback-detection release interface
interface
ethernet unit/port
unit - Unit identifier. (Range: 1)
port - Port number. (Range: 1-26)
port-channel channel-id (Range: 1-12)
COMMAND MODE
Privileged Exec
COMMAND USAGE
Use this command to release an interface from discarding state if loopback
detection release mode is set to “manual” by the spanning-tree loopback-
detection release-mode command and BPDU loopback occurs.
EXAMPLE
Console#spanning-tree loopback-detection release ethernet 1/1
Console#
spanning-tree
protocol-migration
This command re-checks the appropriate BPDU format to send on the
selected interface.
SYNTAX
spanning-tree protocol-migration interface
interface
ethernet unit/port
unit - Unit identifier. (Range: 1)
port - Port number. (Range: 1-26)
port-channel channel-id (Range: 1-12)
COMMAND MODE
Privileged Exec
COMMAND USAGE
If at any time the switch detects STP BPDUs, including Configuration or
Topology Change Notification BPDUs, it will automatically set the selected
interface to forced STP-compatible mode. However, you can also use the
spanning-tree protocol-migration command at any time to manually
re-check the appropriate BPDU format to send on the selected interfaces
(i.e., RSTP or STP-compatible).
