Spanning tree protocol is an essential function of Ethernet networks, and it provides several useful capabilities when used properly. However, STP can cause havoc when a network carrying live video is ...

Thanks to spanning tree protocol, switched network environments are capable of connecting bridges and switches with multiple paths for data transmission.

What does spanning tree protocol actually mean? Find out inside PCMag's comprehensive tech and computer-related encyclopedia.

Guys, Thanks for STP. but one thing pops in my mind how does it stops a network loop in this scenario. A frame (source pc0/1, destination pc2/1) just entered my Switch(SW1) and then router(R1 ...

Our project intends to evaluate and compare the performances of STP and RSTP on Cisco switches supported by OPNET. We were planning to do the comparison of STP with more other types such as Multiple ...

Today I’ll offer a pretty comprehensive CCNA-level lab that gives us a backdrop to then discuss Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) in a 2-switch topology.

It is with that idea in mind that we’d like to profile the achievements made by Radia Perlman, the inventor of spanning tree protocol (STP) and a 2016 inductee into the National Inventors Hall ...

Is the Spanning Tree Protocol a thing that is always operating in managed and unmanaged switches? (Even your basic SOHO Linksys or Netgear switch.) ...

You use an algorithm called the spanning tree protocol — just one of the contributions to computer science of a remarkable engineer, Dr. Radia Perlman.

Cisco’s Resilient Ethernet Protocol (REP) is not a replacement for spanning tree but provides a way to limit spanning tree and optimize it for Metro Ethernet ring topologies.
