What is a Root Bridge (Root Switch) The Root Bridge or the Root Switch is a switch that is something special and occurs in the top of the spanning tree, where spanning tree is a tree that is inverted. All the Ethernet connections are started from this root bridge. The Ethernet connections are also called […]
Spanning Tree Port Priority and Port ID Values In this article I am going to discuss about the Spanning Tree Port Priority and Port ID Values so keep reading this article till the end if you want to know about this. The spanning tree will have a number of switches. And each switches participating in the […]
In this article, I am going to discuss about How to configure Spanning Tree Protocol Root Primary and Root Secondary so keep reading this article till the end you willl get to know much more about this. For a VLAN we have to select a Root Switch among all switches. We can make a switch […]
In this article I am going to discuss about How to Change Spanning Tree Bridge Root Priority value and what is Extended System ID so keep reading this article till the end. Before we knowing about the changing of the bridge priority value, w have to know what is bridge priority value. It is also […]
Before entering into switch management VLAN, we have to know about VLAN. Now, what is VLAN? VLAN stands for Virtual Local Area Network. That means VLAN is a smaller network that is contained within the normal network. Network security can be improved by using the Virtual Local Area Network. It is difficult for unauthorized persons […]
What is a Root Port If a switch is selected as a Root Switch (Root Bridge), then all other switches in that network must have to select a single port in each of the switches. This selection of the single port in every switch is done to reach the Root Switch. The switch that has […]
What is Broadcast Storm If a network is tired by the continuous multicast or broadcast traffic, then there is a high chance to occur in the Broadcast Storm. If there are multiple devices are engaged in sending or in other words broadcasting data through a single network line and the other devices are a response […]
Before we learning about the Spanning Tree Bridge Priority and Bridge ID Values, we all should have a deep knowledge about what is spanning tree and why it is used?. The Broadcast storms and the switching loops in layer 2 are the major problems occurring in the network. These two problems in a Local Area […]
The complete routing path of a network in a router that runs the protocol called link-state routing protocol can be maintained by the link-state routing protocol. The information about the router is created by each of the router that runs this protocol. This originated message is then sent to all of the routers in that […]
As we learn in early topics, a value calledSpanning Tree Path Cost Value is used for the purpose of identifying the Root Port. This identification of the Root Port is for transmitting the data. For this, we have to identify the root port in every switch other than the root switch. If there is more […]
