OMG Sir, brilliant. I've been looking for this for weeks. All I can find is triangle, square or 17 switch configurations. Who cares, those are simple. I needed multiple path configuration between two switches. That's for redundant backup link. This was posted three hours ago and I was able to find it! I can't describe how thankful I am. I have wireless backup link in addition to old fiber. This will be perfect for me. Now to same thing on a layer 3 backup link. I'm thinking to do it similar way. STP the two stacks at L2 and keep L3 routing the same. Not sure how yet. Thank you, thank you! This is gold.
Very Nice example. I got cleared my doubt which i had since 10 years. You explained that as ❤port priority❤ I would like to share you that which you said blocked port actually its alternative port and the state is in blocking State. We only have two state in spanning tree protocol. 1) Forward 2) Block. And we have 3 port type or role in spanning tree as per my understanding. Those 3 are as below. 1) Root Port 2) Designated Port 3) Alternet Port
@@mahendrakumarsahu4395 Yes correct. Spanning tree has evolved over the period. Mostly you see RSTP enabled by default on switch. Please do change it to 802.1D, and you will see the other port status also..
Port priority is combination of two values. One is priority which is by default 128. The remaining piece is port number which is generally equal to port number. Hence most of the time if you don't change priority value, lowest port number is preferred. Thanks..

Thank you so mach dear. I am glad that this video helped you to get the concept better !!

Very nice explaned
Difference btw port priority and interface id. Something missed
