IEEE Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks--Bridges and Bridged Networks Amendment 40: YANG for the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol
Abstract
This amendment to IEEE Std 802.1Q-2022 as amended by IEEE Std 802.1Qcz-2023, IEEE Std 802.1Qcw-2023, IEEE Std 802.1Qcj-2023, IEEE Std 802.1Qdj-2024, and IEEE Std 802.1Qdx-2024 addresses Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) requirements arising from industrial automation networks. It specifies YANG for Bridge and Bridge component RSTP as well as MSTP configuration and status reporting.Scope
This amendment specifies YANG modules that enable configuration and status reporting for bridges and bridge components for the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP). This amendment addresses MSTP requirements arising from industrial automation networks, updating existing managed objects and updating the existing Management Information Base (MIB) to match the capabilities of the YANG modules.
Purpose
Bridges, as specified by this standard, allow the compatible interconnection of information technology equipment attached to separate individual LANs.
