Hi all,
If I disable STP on my 5308xl's, do I have to reboot them or will the change be made immediatly?

Thanks all

If you change the stp configuration with the menu-interface, you will seen a '*' at the main-menu. that means you must reboot.

have a nice day.

From the command-line, you can go to the menue or you type "write memory" to save the config and than "boot" to reboot the switch.

FYI,

From the command-line, I used the command no spanning-tree and no reboot is required. It worked fine for me.

Just thought you would like to know.

Thanks all

Turning on and off STP does not require rebooting. Switching to and from MSTP will require a reboot.
