2751.0. "DSAP Filtering" by CGOOA::DANYLUK () Wed Sep 13 1995 21:35

    
    	I am only some what familiar with spanning tree and
    	DSAP 42 messages, can someone explain to me exactly
    	what is happening when you disable spanning tree on
    	one or more of the ports on bridge, the reason I ask
    	is that I have a customer who believes if he filters
    	out the DSAP 42 packets that this is the same as disabling
    	spanning tree, but when we set up the filter is does not
    	have the same effect.

    	I would also live to read a good description of spanning
    	tree and the packets/protocals associated.

    Have a look at Radia PERLMAN's "Interconnections" (Addison-Wesley).
