ExtremeWare Software 7.3.0 Command Reference Guide 1023
create stpd
create stpd <name>
Description
Creates a user-defined STPD.
Syntax Description
Default
The default device configuration contains a single STPD called s0.
When an STPD is created, the STPD has the following default parameters:
• State—disabled
• StpdID—none
• Assigned VLANs—none
• Bridge priority—32,768
• Hello time—2 seconds
• Forward delay—15 seconds
• Operational mode—802.1d
• Rapid Root Failover—disabled state
• Port mode—Ports in the default STPD (s0) are 802.1d mode. Ports in user-created STPDs are in
emistp
mode.
Usage Guidelines
Each STPD name must be unique, and cannot duplicate any other named elements on the switch (such
as VLANs, QoS profiles, Access profiles, or route maps). If you are uncertain about the VLAN profile
names on the switch, use the
show vlan
command to view the VLAN profiles. If you are uncertain
about QoS profile names on the switch, use the
show qos <qos profile>
command to view the QoS
profiles.
Each STPD has its own Root Bridge and active path. After the STPD is created, one or more VLANs can
be assigned to it.
Example
The following example creates an STPD named purple_st:
create stpd purple_st
