STP for wireless backup

Haris P

Dears ,

We have two wireless bridges configured between 2 buildings and we are using Cisco 2960 switch in both sides .

Can we use STP to make the one link as failover to other one . We have one primary link which is much capable and we want to make the second link as backup

Regards

Haris

Configure a higher STP port cost on the "backup" link - this will make STP use the best = lower ports costs as the primary link.

Can you provide some sample config ??

You can either change a sepcific VLAN cost or the whole port cost:-

Interface x/x

spanning-tree vlan 1 cost 65535 = VLAN cost

or

spanning-tree cost 65535 = port cost
