spanning-tree backbonefast

Command

Spanning-Tree Backbonefast

Use

This command will prevent a switch that has lost its link to the root switch from becoming root when the root is still running. If switches receive an inferior BPDU from a switch, backbonefast will send them the proper information for reaching the root.

Syntax

Switch(config)#spanning-tree backbonefast

Example

spanning-tree backbonefast

In the below example we will configure backbonefast on all switches. After several link failures, we can see that SW4 is correcting SW2’s BPDUs.

SW1(config)#spanning vlan 1-4094 root primary
SW1(config)#spanning backbonefast

 

SW4(config-if-range)#do show spanning back
BackboneFast is enabled
