Figure 1-6 Digest Snooping configuration
Configuration procedure
1) Enable Digest Snooping on Device A.
# Enable Digest Snooping on GigabitEthernet1/0/1.
<DeviceA> system-view
[DeviceA] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1
[DeviceA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] stp config-digest-snooping
[DeviceA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] quit
# Enable global Digest Snooping.
[DeviceA] stp config-digest-snooping
2) Enable Digest Snooping on Device B (the same as above, omitted)
Configuring No Agreement Check
In RSTP and MSTP, two types of messages are used for rapid state transition on designated ports:
z Proposal: sent by designated ports to request rapid transition
z Agreement: used to acknowledge rapid transition requests
Both RSTP and MSTP devices can perform rapid transition on a designated port only when the port
receives an agreement packet from the downstream device. The differences between RSTP and MSTP
devices are:
z For MSTP, the downstream device’s root port sends an agreement packet only after it receives an
agreement packet from the upstream device.
z For RSTP, the down stream device sends an agreement packet regardless of whether an
agreement packet from the upstream device is received.
Figure 1-7 shows the rapid state transition mechanism on MSTP designated ports.
