Hi, I've recently noticed that on my ubunto box, running 2.6.10-5-386, that even when I have STP disabled on a bridge (which I think is the default), when you add a new interface to the bridge, it still goes through at least some of the port states, as well as listing messages in the brctl STP state display such as "flags TOPOLOGY_CHANGE TOPOLOGY_CHANGE_DETECTED".
Is this the right behaviour ? The 15 to 30 second delay before the port moves to Forwarding state can be frustrating, as you don't expect it, and for that period of time, start to think there is something else wrong in the network's configuration. Thanks, Mark. P.S., please CC me on any replies as I'm not subscribed to the list. _______________________________________________ Bridge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.osdl.org/mailman/listinfo/bridge
