Do I need Spanning Tree Protocol?
I have 3 stacked GSM7352S switches. Switch A is connected to B which is connected to C which is connected back to A. I suspect the answer is yes, but I am concerned that STP might be creating problem...
We have the 1 stack of switch plus we have a small switch connected to a port. And we occasionally add a 2nd small switch to another port. And we have a router connected to a port that takes a small amount of traffic to another private network. I see that the switch is set to RSTP.
I have been told to not worry about our version of Mac OS X Server and STP.
Someone adviced to turn on FastLink on ports on the switch that go directly to endpoints but I cannot find this setting on the GSM7352S. I see an Admin Edge Port setting for each port, which can be set to Enabled or Disabled but shows up as True in the Web interface. I am wondering if I should disable this setting for ports that go to other switches.
