Backward compatibility and interoperability

Spanning tree modes are backward compatible and interoperable with the STP version.

The OS10 interoperability feature is designed to support the convergence when the peer switch is running PVST+.

When an OS10 switch that is configured in RPVST+ mode is connected to a vendor switch running PVST+ mode, convergence happens on all VLANs in the domain. Use the spanning-tree rapid-pvst default behavior command to enable or disable the transmission of RSTP BPDUs in VLAN 1 when the port is an untagged member other than VLAN 1. By default, OS10 sends RSTP BPDU for the untagged VLAN. The no version of this command handles the RSTP BPDU for VLAN 1 if the port is a member of VLAN 1.

NOTE: Use this command on the ports that are connected to vendors other than OS9 and OS10.
