  • Method of distributing multiple spanning tree protocol configuration
    Patent number: 7940700
    Abstract: A system and method of distributing a Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) configuration to at least one Ethernet switch. The method comprises assigning an Ethernet switch as a server switch. Based upon a configurable operation mode of the server switch and a configurable operational mode of at least one Ethernet switch configured as a client switch, the server switch is operable to transmit a MSTP configuration to the at least one client switch.
