6.2.3 Rapid Spanning Tree Functionality
The Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP) option is an advanced networking function that
shuts off ports as necessary to prevent data packet loops when more than one
network path is available. If loops are created in an Ethernet network, packets
can be circulated endlessly, consuming all the bandwidth and making the
network unusable.
Important:
All radios in a network must have the same Spanning Tree configuration (enabled or disabled.)
Radios will not link if some of them have Spanning Tree enabled while others do not.
Also note that many managed Ethernet switches have RSTP capability as well. If the Ethernet
switch has RSPT active, it is best to leave RSTP off in the radios.
