Attention For SMLT to function properly, you must manually disable STP on all SMLT, IST, and SLT ports in all spanning tree groups or instances to which the ports belong. For Release 6.2 onward, STP is automatically disabled by software on all SMLT ports. You must also disable STP on all edge switch MLT ports that are connected to the SMLT or SLT. |
