1.7.2 Rapid Transition Configuration
I. Prerequisites
As shown in Figure 1-5, a Quidway series switch is connected to a partner's switch. The
former operates as the downstream switch, and the latter operates as the upstream
switch. The network operates normally.
The upstream switch is running a proprietary spanning tree protocol that is similar to
RSTP in the way to implement rapid transition on designated ports. Port 1 is a
designated port.
The downstream switch is running MSTP. Port 2 is the root port.
