3-2-8. RSTP
RSTP detects and resolves network loops, and provides backup links between
switches, bridges and routers. The protocol allows a switch to communicate with other
RSTP compliant switches, and to ensure only one path existing between two stations in
your network environment.
The switch allows you to create multiple STP configurations and assign ports to a specific
tree.
RSTP can be used together with VLANs. Regardless of the VLAN settings all BPDUs are
sent untagged.
Please take care that other switches are configured accordingly. Especially other MI-
CROSENS switches with RSTP VLAN have to be configured in a way that the RSTP VLAN is
sent untagged.
