Ch3-Spanning Tree Protocol Implementation Flashcards
What value is typically represented by the System ID Extension field?
VLAN ID
What is the default value of the STP Bridge Priority?
32,768
The STP Bridge priority can be manually set with the command <b>spanning-tree vlan <i>vlan-id</i> priority <i>x</i></b>. What range of values can be entered for <i>x</i>?
0-65,535, but only in multiples of 4096
Per-vlan port costs (interface cost) can be manually configured. What command is used to accomplish this?
<b>spanning-tree vlan <i>vlan-id</i> cost<i>x</i></b>.
On a per-interface basis, how is <b>PortFast</b> enabled?
spanning-tree portfast [disable]
On a per-interface basis, how is <b>BPDU Guard</b> enabled?
spanning-tree bpduguard [enable | disable]
It is sometimes desirable to influence the root bridge election. If the command <b>spanning-tree vlan <i>vlan-id</i> root primary</b> is configured, what value will be used for that switch’s BID priority?
If the current root has a base priority higher than 24,576, the local switch uses a base priority of 24,576. If the current root has a base priority lower than 24,576, the local switch will use the highest multiple of 4096 that is lower than 24,576
If the command <b>spanning-tree vlan <i>vlan-id</i> root secondary</b> is configured, what value will be used for that switch’s BID priority?
28,672
What command is used to disable (or enable) PortFast globally for all access ports?
[no] spanning-tree portfast default
What command is used to disable (or enable) BPDU Guard globally?
[no] spanning-tree portfast bpduguard default
What command could be used to verify portfast and/or bpduguard on interface FastEthernet0/4?
show spanning-tree interface fa0/4 portfast
What command could be used to verify the global status of Portfast and/or BPDU Guard?
show spanning-tree summary
When configuring an Etherchannel, what keywords correspond to PAgP?
desirable/auto
When configuring an Etherchannel, what keywords correspond to LACP?
active/passive
When using RSTP, what command determines whether a P2P or Shared port type is also an Edge Port?
portfast
