If you have a layer-2 switched topology containing several
switches with multiple redundant links...you have the possibility
of bridging loops. Fortunately, virtually every switch on the
market defaults to running the Spanning-Tree Protocol to
remove those loops. But don’t you want to know how this
protocol actually works? This course will teach you the details
of the Rapid Spanning-Tree Protocol (RSTP) starting with an
explanation about why bridging loops are bad and then diving
into the details about how RSTP prevents such loops. You’ll
also learn the Cisco IOS commands that enable you to control
RSTP even to the extent of performing per-VLAN load-
balancing.
