Enabling Per-VLAN Rapid Spanning Tree

Per-VLAN Rapid Spanning Tree (PVRST+) uses the existing PVST+ framework for configuration purposes
and for interaction with other features. It also supports some of the PVST+ extensions.
To configure PVRST+, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
Switch(config)# [no] spantree mode rapid-pvst
Step 2
Switch(config)# interface interface/port
Step 3
Switch(config)#
spanning-tree link-type point-to-point
Step 4
Switch(config-if)# exit
Step 5
Switch(config)# exit
Step 6
Switch(config-if)# clear spantree
detected-protocols mod/port
Step 7
Switch# show spanning-tree summary totals
The following example shows how to configure Rapid-PVST+:
Switch# config t
