Usage Guidelines
Use this command to allow a BPDU to traverse a VLAN without being processed by STP, even if STP is
enabled on the port. If you have a known topology and have switches outside of your network within
your STPD, use this feature to keep the root bridge within your network.
This command is useful when you have a known topology with switches outside your network, and
you wish to keep the root bridge within your network.
