As shown in Figure 23:
• Device A and Device B connect to Device C, which is a third-party device. All these devices are in
the same region.
• Enable digest snooping on Device A’s and Device B’s ports that connect Device C, so that the three
devices can communicate with one another.

2. Configuration procedure
# Enable digest snooping on GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 of Device A and enable global digest snooping on
Device A.
<DeviceA> system-view
[DeviceA] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1

# Enable digest snooping on GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 of Device B and enable global digest snooping on
Device B.
<DeviceB> system-view

Configuring no agreement check
In RSTP and MSTP, the following types of messages are used for rapid state transition on designated ports:
• Proposal: sent by designated ports to request rapid transition
• 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. RSTP and MSTP devices have the following
differences:
