DGS-3700-12/DGS-3700-12G Series Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet Switch User Manual

P2P Port
A P2P port is also capable of rapid transition. P2P ports may be used to connect to other bridges. Under RSTP, all
ports operating in full-duplex mode are considered to be P2P ports, unless manually overridden through configuration.
802.1D and 802.1w Compatibility
RSTP can interoperate with legacy equipment and is capable of automatically adjusting BPDU packets to 802.1D
format when necessary. However, any segment using 802.1D STP will not benefit from the rapid transition and rapid
topology change detection of RSTP. The protocol also provides for a variable used for migration in the event that
legacy equipment on a segment is updated to use RSTP.
The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) operates on two levels:
1. On the switch level, the settings are globally implemented.
2. On the port level, the settings are implemented on a per user-defined group of ports basis.
