I've been having trouble with bridges and I noticed that STP is explicitly turned off. This in spite of the brctl man page: brctl stp <bridge> <state> controls this bridge instanceâs participa- tion in the spanning tree protocol. If <state> is "on" or "yes" the STP will be turned on, otherwise it will be turned off. When turned off, the bridge will not send or receive BPDUs, and will thus not partici- pate in the spanning tree protocol. If your bridge isnât the only bridge on the LAN, or if there are loops in the LANâs topology, DO NOT turn this option off. If you turn this option off, please know what you are doing. So, I guess someone knew what they were doing Why did you turn STP off? jch _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
