Backup—The port provides a backup path to the designated port path
toward the Spanning Tree leaves. Backup ports occur when two ports
are connected in a loop by a point-to-point link. Backup ports also occur
when a LAN has two or more connections connected to a shared
segment.
-
Disabled—The port does not participate in the Spanning Tree.
•
Mode—Displays the current Spanning Tree mode.
-
STP—Classic STP is enabled on the port.
-
Rapid STP—RSTP is enabled on the port.
-
MSTP—MSTP is enabled on the port.
•
Type—Displays the MSTP type of the port.
-
Boundary—A Boundary port attaches MSTP bridges to a LAN in an
outlying region. If the port is a boundary port, it also indicates whether the
device on the other side of the link is working in RSTP or STP mode.
-
Internal—The port is an internal port.
•
Designated Bridge ID—Displays the bridge ID number that connects the
link or shared LAN to the root.

Designated Port ID—Displays the priority and port ID on the designated
bridge that connects the link or the shared LAN to the root.

topology. Ports with a lower cost are less likely to be blocked if STP detects
loops.
