50 STP chapter
53 The STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) implementation in the Linux bridge driver
56 bridge context, STP is crucial for network stability and availability.
58 STP is a Layer 2 protocol that operates at the Data Link Layer of the OSI
70 Bridge Ports and STP States
73 In the context of STP, bridge ports can be in one of the following states:
77 * Listening: The port begins to participate in the STP process and listens
84 in the STP process. The data frames forwarding are also disabled.
93 Here's how the STP works and root bridge is chosen:
133 STP ensures network convergence by calculating the shortest path and disabling
135 STP recalculates the network topology to restore connectivity while avoiding loops.
137 Proper configuration of STP parameters, such as the bridge priority, can
141 User space STP helper
144 The user space STP helper *bridge-stp* is a program to control whether to use
145 user mode spanning tree. The ``/sbin/bridge-stp <bridge> <start|stop>`` is
146 called by the kernel when STP is enabled/disabled on a bridge
147 (via ``brctl stp <bridge> <on|off>`` or ``ip link set <bridge> type bridge
