bridge-group protocol ieee uses the 802.1d Spanning
tree standard.
DEC was the original and is slightly different then
IEEE. Similar for IBM. Use IEEE unless your connecting
to a legacy device that uses DEC or IBM and doesn't
conform to the IEEE 802.1d standard.
There's more on this in the archives. A great book by
the creator (Radia Perlman) is Interconnections, or
you can buy the IEEE 802.1d spec from IEEE.
