Chapter 8 Configuring VLANs

Load Sharing Using STP

Load Sharing Using STP Port Priorities

When two ports on the same switch form a loop, the STP port priority setting

determines which port is enabled and which port is in standby mode. You can set

the priorities on a parallel trunk port so that the port carries all the traffic for a

given VLAN. The trunk port with the higher priority (lower values) for a VLAN

is forwarding traffic for that VLAN. The trunk port with the lower priority (higher

values) for the same VLAN remains in a blocking state for that VLAN. One trunk

port transmits or receives all traffic for the VLAN.

Figure 8-5 shows two trunks connecting supported switches. In this example, the

switches are configured as follows:

• VLANs 8 through 10 are assigned a port priority of 10 on trunk 1.

• VLANs 3 through 6 retain the default port priority of 128 on trunk 1.

• VLANs 3 through 6 are assigned a port priority of 10 on trunk 2.

• VLANs 8 through 10 retain the default port priority of 128 on trunk 2.

In this way, trunk 1 carries traffic for VLANs 8 through 10, and trunk 2 carries

traffic for VLANs 3 through 6. If the active trunk fails, the trunk with the lower

priority takes over and carries the traffic for all of the VLANs. No duplication of

traffic occurs over any trunk port.
